The code in the directory /usr/jwz/public/rexec/ on the machine
spice.cs.cmu.edu [128.2.254.139] will let you do this.  Anonymous
FTP.

The directory /usr/jwz/public/ contains lots of explorer goodies,
going sadly unused these days...  See _readme.text.

When FTPing to spice, cd to /usr/jwz/public/ in one step.  CMU's
security mechanisms will not let you connect to the directories
/usr/ or /usr/jwz/.
