Several postings latelhave shown that the following message
may be helpful.

If you have an account at a node on BITNET, EARN, or NetNorth,
you can get lots of Public Domain (PD) software for your Atari ST.
There is a group in Huston that maintains a collection of software
that you can get.  The commands

	TELL UH-INFO AT UHUPVM1 ATARINET HELP
	tell uh-info at uhupvm1 atarinet index 

will get you started.

The header of their INDEX starts out looking like this:

 ***************************************************
 **  Welcome  to  ATARINET,  sponsored  by  the   **
 **  University Atari Computer Enthusiasts (UACE) **
 **         at the University of Houston          **

and a few more are

 **      ATARINET is a subserver of UH-INFO       **
 **         Send comments and files for           **
 **         ATARINET to UACE0 at UHUPVM1.         **
 ***************************************************
 +  For a list of what's new, tell Atarinet 'NEWS' +
 *=================================================*
 * To get info-atari16 digests, use                *
 * LISTSERV at FINHUTC  or  LISTSERV at CANADA01   *
 *-------------------------------------------------*
 * from a VAX using JNET 2.0 or less, enter:       *
 *   SEND/REMOTE UHUPVM1 UH-INFO "ATARINET HELP"   *
 * from a VAX using JNET 3.0 or more, enter:       *
 *   SEND UH-INFO@UHUPVM1 "ATARINET HELP"          *
 

 I hope this helps...
