There are several directories for the tex and metafont stuff on score
that I know of:

amsfonts, amstex, aps, bibtex, cm, doc, gf, inputs, latex, mf, tex
texguests, texhax, and web

These directories are "subdirectories" (if there is such a thing for
tops20) of the directory <tex>.  For example, the sources to computer
modern are in the directory <tex.cm> and be sure that you use the angle
brackets:

ftp score.stanford.edu
ftp> cd <tex.cm>
ftp> prompt
ftp> verbose
ftp> mget *.*
ftp> quit

There is no unix stuff (change files, .c files, makefiles, etc.) on
score; you'll need to get that from Washington.
