************************************************************************* CUMULATIVE INDEX TO "FLORA ONLINE" (ISSN 0892-9106) A journal for collections-oriented botanists available online through TAXACOM (716-896-7581), an electronic service for biosystematics and biogeography. The Clinton Herbarium Buffalo Museum of Science, Humboldt Pkwy, Buffalo, NY 14211 Editor, Richard H. Zander FLORA ONLINE is also available from the TAXACOM FTP SERVER which is reachable on the Internet at herbarium.bpp.msu.edu (IP: 35.8.196.1) through anonymous FTP. The FTP SERVER cop- ies are compressed with PKZIP, an MS-DOS program. PKUNZIP de- compresses the files once they are copied to your DOS PC. PKZIP and PKUNZIP are created on your PC for your local use by the PK110.EXE program which is available in this subdirectory. You should FTP a copy of the file PK110.EXE from here. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT ALL FTP TRANSFERS BE EFFECTED IN BINARY MODE, OTHERWISE THE COPIES YOU MAKE WILL BE USELESS. YOU MUST SPECIFY "BINARY" or "IMAGE" AT THE FTP PROMPT BEFORE USING "GET" TO RETRIEVE ANY OF THESE FILES. After you have FTP'd the files of interest, type "PK110" at your DOS prompt to unpack the decompression programs from their compressed state. Then use PKUNZIP to decompress the Flora Online issues. Some issues contain two layers of compressed files, use PKUNZIP on any files ending in ".ZIP" to extract all of the text, program and data files of a FLORA ONLINE issue. More information on the use of PKUNZIP is in a documentation text file which appears after running PK110.EXE for the first time. ************************************************************************* F L O R A O N L I N E Issue 1 WHAT IS TAXACOM?
