Hi all, Hope someone can help a newbie to the Mac Scene. I am unable to uudecode a file downloaded from the net I used newswatcher to grab the segs but came with a error saying it can not find uudecode. Do I need a plug in or a seperate program.

Or even on info-mac: cmp/uu-lite-30.hqx How good is Kassel access these days? I know Demon's European links are pretty good now, but I confess that I *still* go to South Kensington: ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk//computers/systems/mac/info-mac Incidentally, somebody asked me the other day about the sunsite address; what is it? Is it the same machine as the Imperial src.doc address? Lazy minds would like to know... -- Peter

ISTR hearing a while ago that the box itself was provided/sponsored by Sun, but hosted at ic.ac. mirrors.apple.com or mirror.apple.com is the meta-archive I used to use for Mac stuff, but access might be a bit slow from here. rgds, Alan

Germany, France & Spain I find fine these days, that's why I give such
exotic addresses. Usually the tightest-compressed one archie.hensa can
find.
