The RightBrain Software File Server is up and running.  It was easier
than I thought it would be.

Send a message to

	file-server@rightbrain.com

with the the word "help" in the body of the message (or in the subject
line) and it will send you a note on how to use it.

If you're familiar with Adobe's ps-file-server, then you already know
how to use this, because it's basically the same code, although I hacked
it so it would support NeXTmail attachments, which makes it much easier
to use.

I think all the wrinkles are out of it.  There's nothing particularly
useful stored in it yet; the PasteUp logo as an EPS file, which I
put in there for testing, and the RTF files that started all of this :-)

It's pretty neat; give it a try.  The only thing to be aware of is that
it ALWAYS will send you NeXT attachments, because we believe in the
technology and we hate ASCII.

As soon as Jack gets back from the hospital with his broken fingers
all taped up, we can start putting some real documents and sample
programs or whatever on the server for you.  We're going to try to
make it into a real repository of information about Publishing on
the NeXT.
