      The following is from the latest version of file FTP.

      However when I tried to ftp /u2/emacs/edist.tar, I found that there
      was no such a file on host prep.ai.mit.edu.  What was wrong?

   Although that file has been updated on prep.ai.mit.edu recently
   (4Sep90), some parts are still old.  For instance, there's no longer a
   link maintained between edist.tar.Z and the current compressed Emacs
   distribution.  There's no longer an uncompressed distribution
   available, likely because of space restrictions.  Also, I would hope
   that the references to u2/emacs would be dropped in favor of pub/gnu.

   Anyway, the file you want is called
   prep.ai.mit.edu:pub/gnu/emacs-18.55.tar.Z.  Enjoy!

all done.

thanx -len
