There's an official bulletin board supported by the University of Arizona
Icon Project where the latest versions of Icon for the Atari ST, MS-DOS
and other machines can be obtained. The sources are available there too.
The number is (602) 621-2283. It runs at 300, 1200 and 2400 baud. Your
machine should be full duplex, 7 bits, even parity and 1 stop bit.
If you're on Internet you can also get Icon material from the Icon Project
using anonymous FTP from arizona.edu. The information on what's available
can be obtained by 'cd'ing to icon and getting README. This information
comes from The Icon Newsletter #23. I haven't tried this since I'm not on
Internet. One important note in the newsletter might apply to the original
posting. "It is essential to use the binary ('image') mode when getting
program material via FTP."
If you just have questions about Icon there are email addresses set up for
that purpose. They're {allegra,ihnp4,noao}!arizona!icon-project or
icon-project@arizona.edu. Hope this is useful information.
