-*- text -*- How to get GNU Software by Internet FTP or by UUCP. Last updated 1999-01-20 * Please send improvements to this file to gnu@gnu.org. * No Warranties We distribute software in the hope that it will be useful, but without any warranty. No author or distributor of this software accepts responsibility to anyone for the consequences of using it or for whether it serves any particular purpose or works at all, unless he says so in writing. This is exactly the same warranty that the commercial software companies offer: None. If the distribution is incomplete or the media fails, you can always download a replacement from any of the GNU mirrors, free of charge. * Updates A possibly more up-to-date list of GNU FTP sites is at http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html * How to FTP Use the ftp program on your system (ask locally if you can't find it) to connect to the host you are ftping from. Unless indicated otherwise, login in as user "anonymous", with password: "your e-mail address" and set "binary" mode (to transfer all eight bits in each byte). ALWAYS USE BINARY/IMAGE MODE TO TRANSFER THESE FILES! Text mode does not work for tar files or compressed files. * GNU Software and How To FTP It GNU software is available on ftp.gnu.org under the directory /gnu. diff files to convert between versions exist for some of these programs. Some programs have misc support files as well. Have a look on ftp.gnu.org to see which ones. In most cases, the tar or diff files are compressed with the `gzip' program; this is indicated with the .gz suffix. Descriptions of GNU software are available at http://www.gnu.org/software/software.html * Alternative Internet FTP Sources Please do NOT use a site outside your country, until you have checked all sites inside your country, and then your continent. Trans-ocean TCP/IP links are very expensive and usually very low speed. The canonical GNU ftp site is located at ftp.gnu.org/gnu. You should probably use one of the many mirrors of that site - the mirrors will be less busy, and you can find one closer to your site. * GNU FTP Site Mirror List United States: California - labrea.stanford.edu/pub/gnu, gatekeeper.dec.com/pub/GNU, ftp.keystealth.org/pub/gnu Hawaii - ftp.hawaii.edu/mirrors/gnu Illinois - uiarchive.cso.uiuc.edu/pub/gnu (Internet address 128.174.5.14) Kentucky - ftp.ms.uky.edu/pub/gnu Maryland - ftp.digex.net/pub/gnu (Internet address 164.109.10.23) Massachusetts - aeneas.mit.edu/pub/gnu Michigan - gnu.egr.msu.edu/pub/gnu Missouri - wuarchive.wustl.edu/systems/gnu New Mexico - ftp.cs.unm.edu/mirrors/gnu New York - ftp.cs.columbia.edu/archives/gnu/prep New York - ftp.stealth.net/pub/mirrors/ftp.gnu.org (Internet address 206.252.192.18) North Carolina - http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/gnu Ohio - ftp.cis.ohio-state.edu/mirror/gnu Pennsylvania - boron.club.cc.cmu.edu/gnu Tennessee - sunsite.utk.edu/pub/gnu/ftp Virginia - ftp.uu.net/archive/systems/gnu Washington - ftp.nodomainname.net/pub/mirrors/gnu Wisconsin - ftp.twtelecom.net/pub/GNU Africa: South Africa - ftp.sun.ac.za/gnu The Americas: Brazil - ftp.unicamp.br/pub/gnu Brazil - master.softaplic.com.br/pub/gnu Brazil - ftp.matrix.com.br/pub/gnu Canada - ftp.cs.ubc.ca/mirror2/gnu Chile - ftp.inf.utfsm.cl/pub/gnu (Internet address 146.83.198.3) Costa Rica - sunsite.ulatina.ac.cr/Mirrors/GNU Mexico - ftp.uaem.mx/pub/gnu Australia: Australia - ftp.progsoc.uts.edu.au/pub/gnu Australia - mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/gnu Asia: China - ftp.sea9.com/pub/gnu China - ftp.cs.cuhk.edu.hk/pub/gnu/ China - sunsite.ust.hk/pub/gnu/ Japan - tron.um.u-tokyo.ac.jp/pub/GNU/prep Japan - ftp.cs.titech.ac.jp/pub/gnu Japan - mirror.nucba.ac.jp/mirror/GNU/ Japan - core.ring.gr.jp/pub/GNU Japan - ftp.ring.gr.jp/pub/GNU Korea - cair-archive.kaist.ac.kr/pub/gnu (Internet address 143.248.186.3) Korea - ftpmirror.hanyang.ac.kr/GNU Saudi Arabia - ftp.isu.net.sa/pub/mirrors/prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu Taiwan - coda.nctu.edu.tw/UNIX/gnu Taiwan - ftp1.sinica.edu.tw/pub3/GNU/gnu/ Thailand - ftp.nectec.or.th/pub/mirrors/gnu (Internet address - 192.150.251.32) Europe: Austria - ftp.gnu.vbs.at/gnu Austria - ftp.univie.ac.at/packages/gnu Austria - gd.tuwien.ac.at/gnu/gnusrc Belgium - ftp.be.gnu.org Austria - http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/gnu/gnusrc/ Czech Republic - ftp.fi.muni.cz/pub/gnu/ Denmark - ftp.denet.dk/mirror/ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu Denmark - ftp.dkuug.dk/pub/gnu/ Finland - ftp.funet.fi/pub/gnu France - ftp.univ-lyon1.fr/pub/gnu France - ftp.irisa.fr/pub/gnu France - ftp.medasys-digital-systems.fr/pub/gnu France - ftp.fuitad.net/mirrors/ftp.gnu.org Germany - ftp.leo.org/pub/comp/os/unix/gnu/ Germany - ftp.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/gnu Germany - ftp.de.uu.net/pub/gnu Germany - ftp.freenet.de/pub/ftp.gnu.org/gnu/ Germany - ftp.gigabell.net/pub/gnu Germany - ftp.cs.uni-bonn.de/pub/gnu/ Germany - ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/ftp.gnu.org Germany - http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/ftp.gnu.org Greece - ftp.forthnet.gr/pub/gnu Greece - ftp.ntua.gr/pub/gnu Greece - ftp.duth.gr/pub/gnu Greece - ftp.aua.gr/pub/mirrors/GNU (Internet address 143.233.187.61) Hungary - ftp.kfki.hu/pub/gnu Ireland - ftp.esat.net/pub/gnu (Internet address 193.120.14.241) Israel - iglu.org.il/pub/GNU Italy - ftp.oasi.gpa.it/pub/gnu Netherlands - ftp.eu.net/gnu (Internet address 192.16.202.1) Netherlands - ftp.nluug.nl/pub/gnu Netherlands - ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/gnu (Internet address 131.155.70.19) Netherlands - ftp.mirror.nl/pub/mirror/gnu Netherlands - ftp.nl.uu.net/pub/gnu Norway - ftp.ntnu.no/pub/gnu (Internet address 129.241.11.142) Norway - sunsite.uio.no/pub/gnu Poland - ftp.task.gda.pl/pub/gnu Poland - sunsite.icm.edu.pl/pub/gnu Portugal - ftp.ci.uminho.pt/pub/mirrors/gnu Portugal - http://ciumix.ci.uminho.pt/mirrors/gnu/ Portugal - ftp.ist.utl.pt/pub/gnu Portugal - mirrors.netvisao.pt/gnu Romania - archive.logicnet.ro/mirrors/ftp.gnu.org/gnu/ Russia - ftp.chg.ru/pub/gnu Slovenia - ftp.arnes.si/gnu Spain - ftp.etsimo.uniovi.es/pub/gnu Spain - ftp.rediris.es/pub/gnu Sweden - ftp.isy.liu.se/pub/gnu Sweden - ftp.stacken.kth.se Sweden - ftp.luth.se/pub/unix/gnu Sweden - ftp.sunet.se/pub/gnu (Internet address 130.238.127.3) Also mirrors the Mailing List Archives.

The emacs distribution itself has a filename in the form emacs-M.N.tar.gz, where M and N stand for the version numbers; the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual is in a separate file, named elisp-manual-NN.tar.gz. * Scheme and How to FTP It The latest distribution version of C Scheme is available via anonymous FTP from swiss-ftp.ai.mit.edu in /pub/scheme-X.X/ (where X.X is some version number). Read the files INSTALL and README in the top level C Scheme directory. * TeX and How to Obtain It We don't distribute TeX now, but it is free software. TeX is a document formatter that is used, among other things, by the FSF for all its documentation. You will need it if you want to make printed manuals. TeX is freely redistributable. You can get it by ftp, tape, or CD/ROM. ** For FTP instructions, retrieve the file ftp.cs.umb.edu/pub/tex/unixtex.ftp. (We don't include it here because it changes relatively frequently. Sorry.) ** A minimal TeX collection (enough to process Texinfo files, anyway) is included on the GNU source CD-ROM. See the file ORDERS in this directory for more information. * VMS FTP sites with GNU Software You can anonymously ftp a VMS version of GNU emacs from: - ftp.vms.stacken.kth.se:[.GNU-VMS] - GNU Emacs and some other VMS ports (and some VMS binaries) of GNU software - mango.rsmas.miami.edu has a VMS version of the GCC/G++ compiler. Contact angel@flipper.miami.edu (angel li) for details. - RIGEL.EFD.LTH.SE [130.235.48.3] - GNU Emacs * Getting GNU software in Great Britain jpo@cs.nott.ac.uk is willing to distribute those GNU sources he has available. The smaller items are available from the info-server (send to info-server@cs.nott.ac.uk); the larger items by negotiation. Due to communication costs this service is only available within the UK. BattenIG@computer-science.birmingham.ac.uk (aka I.G.Batten@fulcrum.bt.co.uk) is also willing to distribute those GNU sources he has. wizards@doc.ic.ac.uk is willing to distribute those GNU sources they have along with most other freely distributable software. The SunSITE archive on SunSITE.doc.ic.ac.uk (193.63.255.4) is available via ftp, http, fsp, gopher, NFS and Lanmanger over IP (SMB), and telnet. UK sites with just anonymous FTP access are in the above list. * Getting GNU software via UUCP OSU is distributing via UUCP: most GNU software, MIT C Scheme, Compress, News, RN, NNTP, Patch, some Appletalk stuff, some of the Internet Requests For Comment (RFC) et al.. See their periodic postings on the Usenet newsgroup comp.sources.d for informational updates. Current details from <staff@cis.ohio-state.edu> or <...!osu-cis!staff>. Information on how to uucp some GNU programs is available via electronic mail from: uunet!hutch!barber, hqda-ai!merlin, acornrc!bob, hao!scicom!qetzal!upba!ugn!nepa!denny, ncar!noao!asuvax!hrc!dan, bigtex!james (aka james@bigtex.cactus.org), oli-stl!root, src@contrib.de (Germany), toku@dit.co.jp (Japan) and info@ftp.uu.net. * If You Like The Software If you like the software developed and distributed by the Free Software Foundation, please express your satisfaction with a donation. Your donations will help to support the Foundation and make our future efforts successful, including a complete development and operating system, called GNU (Gnu's Not Unix), which will run Unix user programs. For more information on GNU and the Foundation, contact us at the above address, or see our web site at http://www.gnu.org. Ordering a GNU Source Code CD-ROM or Source Code CD-ROM Subscription is a good way for your organization to help support our work.
