History: * Sept. 9, 1992 - We started our service with 4 x 1.3G disks.
         * Oct. 1, 1992 - First anonymous ftp archive transferring
                          statistics came out in Taiwan.  It proved
                          that NCTUCCCA.edu.tw was a very popular
                          site in Taiwan with over 6G bytes transferred
                          in its first 22 days
         * Oct 1992 - Another 1.3G disk was equipped.
         * Nov 1992 - Another 2 x 1.3G disk was equipped again.
         * Dec 1992 - Ministry of Education, Computer Center was persuaded
                      of our transferring statistics and agreed to have
                      another two aliases available for NCTUCCCA.edu.tw:
                      ftp.edu.tw and archive.edu.tw
         * Dec 1992 - Upgraded OS, Installed and Tested Sun Online:
                      DiskSuite
Statistics:
                        Total bytes transferred         Total Logins
                                in Kbytes
        Sept. 1992             6,353,892                      N/A
        Oct   1992            25,209,682                   33,773

        Dec   1992            22,801,734                   34,381
(Note: Transferring statistics in details can be found via anonymous ftp
       from NCTUCCCA.edu.tw in /archive-info/ftp-stats)
At present: * 6G software/documents on-line, mirroring from other famous
              archives around the world mainly for all Taiwan users
            * Some local Chinese collections for all Chinese
            * the largest anonymous ftp archive in Taiwan
In the near future: * Another 5 x 1.3G will be also equipped.
                    * UPLOAD will be AVAILABLE.
                    * We will intend to have the largest Chinese collections
                      for all Chinese users around the world, and do what
                      we should do.
                    * At that time(in late Feb.), your CHINESE UPLOAD will
                      be certainly WELCOMEd.

Finally, I got a question: "I really do not have sense about how many
space should we keep if we intent to have a world Chinese collection
as complete as possible"?

Thank you.

Happy Chinese New Year!

                           Useful Tips for Using FTP
                           =========================

1. If a directory on remote machine contains too many entries, the output of
   "ls" or "dir" will scroll over your screen.  The following command can
   force the output be displayed one page at a time:

       ftp>  dir  .  |more

   (Note:  '.' is necessary, and there should be no space between | and more.)

2. If you want to save the file list of current directory on remote machine
   to a file on your own machine, type

       ftp>  dir . local_file

    The general format is:

       ftp>  dir  [remote_directory]  [local_file]

3. To read a short file, README say, on remote machine without saving it
   to your local machine, type

        ftp>  get README |more

4. If you want to check information from a local_file without quitting FTP
   session, type any one of the following:

       ftp>  ! more  local_file
       ftp>  !  vi   local_file
       ftp>  ! emacs local_file

   (Note: If you have just transmitted a file README to your machine,
    this new file can be accessed in the same way.)

5. In general, you can invoke a subshell on FTP prompt by typing:

       ftp>  !

   You can return to FTP prompt by typing "exit" on UNIX command line.

6. The following command guarantees to cd back to parent directory, no
   matter what operating system is running on the remote machine.

       ftp>  cdup

   (If the remote machine runs UNIX, "cd .." does the same job.  But
   in other situations, "cd .." may not work.)

7. If you want to transfer a bunch of files using "mget" or "mput" and
   don't wnat to be bothered by confirmation for each file, you can type

       ftp>  prompt

    to turn interactive mode off.  (Doing it one more time will bring you
    back to the interactive mode.  It toggles.)


NOTE:  In the above examples, "ftp> " represents the FTP prompt.  You
    need only type the command following the prompt.

Hello, if you can not find gb2pinyin anywhere else you can try
unix% ftp nic.funet.fi (the largest FTP-site in Europe) and
ftp> login: ftp
ftp> password: your_email_address
ftp> bin
ftp> prompt
ftp> cd pub/culture/chinese/unix/gb2pinyin
ftp> mget c2t*
[...]
ftp> bye
[...]
also, if you are interested in the older version you can try
cd /pub/culture/chinese/unix
and
get gb2pinyin.tar.Z

The c2t is an enhanced version of gb2pinyin with the help of
Katya Ta (ta_k@maths.su.oz.au). It also contains the gb2pinyin.el
by deng@bnl.gov.

The big5 sites referred to in the earlier posting include BBS's at
Chiao-t'ung Univ. and Chung-shan (Sun Yat-sen) Univ. in Taiwan, as well
as 2 online library catalogues, one at Hong Kong University of Science
and Technology, and one at Academia Sinica (Chung-yang Yen-chiu Yuan), Taiwan.
I'm sorry I don't remember the telnet addresses offhand...  Perhaps some
kind netter could provide them.

This posting additionally carries 2 mesgs:
1. To unsubscribe to CCNET-L, send "signoff ccnet-l" to listserv@uga.bitnet

2. To read me (Internet-Tools) on-line in big5 chinese, telnet
   to the chinese gopher server, read the following for address :-)
------------------------------------------------------------------


       One of the great thing in the world is some people
       who  are willing to share his/her works with others for
       free; this is where those FREEWAREs are from. In the
       area of computing, we are proude of this; we have
       comparative more people who are willing to keep doing
       this no matter how they are told how silly they are--
       The authors of Internet-Tools are among them.

       But, while freewares exist out there, the COPYRIGHT
       statements are also there. As soon as you are benefiting
       from that freeware; you should also try to give your
       respect to those statements by reading it and following it.
       Those statements are probably not used to limit your use
       of the freeware, instead, they are used to explain to
       you how to make the best use of the freeware or  how to
       maximize the benefits you can get; in these positive
       things...etc..etc..   Enjoy your reading....

This is, again, a periodically posting for----

     I N T E R N E T - T O O L S
         a very good chinese networking doc for new hand


                                   V1.10 update 11/25 92
History: The on-line version of Internet-Tools was released
         someday in July 1992. The printed version is also
         available NOW!! For infomation, contact your local
         bookstores, or call The Third Wave BOOK CO, Taipei,
         Taiwan. This book's ISBN is 957-23-0193-4
         Phone: 886-2-7136959 Ext 424  Miss Lin
         FAX:   886-2-7189469 To Miss Lin Ya-Hwe

What is Internet:
    This book almost tells you nothing directly about Internet,
    but tries to show you how/where to find the Internet
    resources. As a reader, you don't have to be a computer
    science people, because this book have already taken care
    of the background knowledge in computing. So what you
    need now is just "sit in front of computer" and " follow
    those intructions step by step", and you will get what
    you need/want -- If you are also interested in knowing why
    thing are done, you simply read the explainations beside
    those steps. Simple!!

What is Email:  Simple, a mail in electronical format!! No
    envelops, stamps and of course no mail men/women....
    This book covers the IBM VM/CMS, DEC VAX/VMS and UNIX
    environment. These are almost ALL the host computer
    based on...

What is Telnet: One host simulates as a terminal of the other
    and log into it.. Or you can simply say a way two
    host connect to each other... a example like, you are
    sitting somewhere in US east coast, you can easily log
    into those hosts in Taiwan/Hongkong/Singapore whose
    library system are consisting of a lot of Chinese
    infomation.. (Sounds cool !!)

    Those service on Internet such as Archie--file finder,
    Gopher on-line service, Hytelnet--Resouces browser,
    IRC--Internet Relay Chat for talkive people, BBS,
    Libriry on line catalog, Database system, and many many
    many many for game, chess... can all be accessed via telnet.

    (Please read the book and play by yourself, the authors
     don't accept any question about these service or servers)


What is FTP:  One computer hook up to the other and upload/download
     software/tech-report/anything back and forth. Usually,
     the other side are containning a lot of these files
     to allow you to retrieve. This is why the other host
     which serve this purpose is called FTP server
     (or Archive Server, BTW,"archive" means either files or filing)..

What is On-Line message:
     On Internet society, people just sit in front of
     his/her own computer and talk to another one no matter
     where another is. This "talk" can be one-to-one or
     multi-to-multi, all up to you to implement. The case in
     BITNET is pretty similar to this, but this book so far
     doesn't introduce so much. But it, by the way, tells you
     many and many about BITNET mailing lists, such as the
     CCNET-L and the like.

What's more:

      This book, currently, can be considered one of the
      best documents/books which introduces Taiwan Internet
      , or say internetworking in Taiwan. It directly points
      to you much infomation regarding this (althogh this
      part seems to be out-of-date bacause the net society
      or net application in Taiwan simply grows too fast)
      It also indirectly points to other documents which
      probably best describes the Taiwan Internet/BITNET.

      More infomation will be incorporated into it, such as
      the ready-to-reference Current Usenet Report
      (which is currently published contiguously by UNIXWorld,
       Chinese version, from Feb - April 1993)

      One of the best doc for NCSA Telnet/Ftp is also here.


What's what's what's more and more...
       Checking it out by yourself is the best way ...



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                What is Internet-Tools:
((((((((((((((((((((             )))))))))))))))))))))))))))
     Internet-Tools is a series of articles containning mostly
     the infomation mentioned above-- most networking stuffs.
     Is it free? Of course, it's freely accessable by FTP
     or gopher. For details keep looking down over there.

     Internet-Tools is written in Chinese and for you, Chinese.
     No matter you are from China, Hongkong or Taiwan.
     These articles comprise of both the traditional characters
     set and simplified one. More specifically: those files
     ending with .big are traditional, similarly, .gb are
     simplified.


Who contributes this great works:

 So far,
          Wu Jye      jye@twnas886.bitnet
          Erik Wang   u7911093@cc.nctu.edu.tw
          --yuan      t90yuan@mp.cs.niu.edu

      If you do benefit from the book, be generious to
      drop your THANKS to these guys and show them your
      beautiful smile like this--  :-)



How & where to retrieve Internet-Tools
    Anyway, Please Please try to access the site which is closest
    to you please and please again. For overseas Chinese, "ifcss.org"
    should be the closest to you and it holds the GB version of
    Internet-Tools only.

    address             directory                  loginID     password
    -----------       --------------------------  ---------   ---------

    (140.111.2.22)

    ifcss.org          china-stuies/net-resources  anonymous  your-User-ID




    And most major universities in Taiwan are supposed to hold
    Internet-Tools, I assume.



Is the on-line reading available?
    Yes, you can also choose to access to gopher.ccu.edu.tw
   (140.123.1.2) by using either "gopher" client program or
   "telnet". This gopher server provides you with on-line reading
   to Internet-Tools if you have Chinese connection to it. The
   authors thank those who make this possible.


What are the exactly contents of it?

    I try to translate the contents of the table into English
    as precise as I can, so that, the following is what I
    am done. Anyway, you are encourged to verify these
    by yourself. The purpose of this is to provide you with
    the basic idea what's in there or the quick look at it, so
    that you can just pick up those you need/want/love and GO.

The CCU (Chung Cheng Univ.) has a big5 gopher sevrer
at 140.123.1.2, telnet to that location and login
gopher. You should be able to find the other sites
from there onwards.

The Department of Information Management at NCU
is working on chinese full text inicing. It will
allow gopher searches. We are still working on it
and hope to bring the good news to everyone soon.

    KC is likely the most comprehensive Chinese System for FREE
running under DOS. I personally just got it and had roughly
running, so that not much experience to contribute. Here just
to want to share with you that a alternative place to discuss
KC.   As the subject says:

    telnet NCTUCCCA.edu.tw  login: twnews

If you like to join talking some Taiwanese issues, you can also
find some good place there. GIve it a try.  --yuan

Status: RO

The multi-lingual archives at The Computing Research Labs, New Mexico
State University will be moving to a new ftp address soon.  The
archives are being put under control of the Consortium for Lexical
Research.

The new ftp address will be: clr.nmsu.edu (the current IP address
is 128.123.1.12 but may change, so use clr.nmsu.edu whenever
possible).

Please note that there is a difference between ftp sites crl.nmsu.edu and
clr.nmsu.edu.  The crl.nmsu.edu site will be our ftp site for items
not related to the Consortium for Lexical Research.

The Arabic, Chinese, French, Italian, Indian, Japanese, Korean,
Tibetan, and Vietnamese archives will all be moved.

We will announce the new locations of the relevant directories once
the archives have been moved.

Please be patient if you discover directories missing when you ftp to
either crl.nmsu.edu or clr.nmsu.edu.  It will take a few days to move
everything.

If you are not familiar with our multi-lingual archives, we have been
slowly collecting various software, fonts, and text for different
languages over the past 2 years.  Most of the software is currently
Unix oriented.  We would also like to encourage people to continue to
contribute items to the archives to help improve the quality and
quantity of multi-lingual tools.

If you have an item to contribute, please put it in:

clr.nmsu.edu:incoming/

and send a note to lexical@nmsu.edu telling them about your
contribution.

If you have any questions or comments, please send them to:
lexical@nmsu.edu

There a couple of WAIS sources just starting up -- I believe Gopher
provides an interface to WAIS.

For those who've never heard of WAIS: it stands for Wide Area Information
Server and provides Internet access to data collections indexed by
content.  You run a client program on your machine and it communicates
with WAIS servers scattered across the Internet.  Unix clients include
xwais/waissearch/swais: if you site has them you could try their manuals.
There are also clients for Macs, NeXT and maybe others.  You might try
ftping the WAIS from think.com:wais/ and rooting around -- unfortunately
the documentation is poor.  Maybe Gopher is a better-documented interface,
but I know nothing about it.

Anyway, searching the WAIS directory-of-servers for the keywords "china"
and "chinese" turns up the sources (databases):

ANU-Asian-Computing     A loose and continuously growing collection of

ANU stands for the Australian National University, Canberra, Australia.
They've just set up these sources, so the headlines and coverage aren't
optimal, but they plan to continuously add information.  Also I'm told
that an upgrade in about a fortnight will use Subject: lines of mail
messages as headlines (a lot more useful than message numbers).

Much of the data in the source ANU-Asian-Computing consists of messages
from CCNET-L, except that some kind soul is filtering out all the garbage
-- after the upgrade this source will be a very convenient way to search
a CCNET-L archive plus other relevant stuff.

Subject:      Chinese Gopher under GNU Emacs
Comments: To: ccnet-l@uga.cc.uga.edu
To: Multiple recipients of list CCNET-L <CCNET-L@uga.cc.uga.edu>
Status: RO

BACKGROUND:

For those who don't know, Gopher is a wonderful new Internet
information service.  It provides user-friendly access to a vast array
of material around the world including documents, event calendars,
software, pictures, library catalogs, etc.

As has been mentioned here on CCNET, there are several Gopher servers
in Taiwan which have a lot of documents and material in BIG-5 coded
Chinese.  You can connect to them directly or through another Gopher
server, for instance the big one at the University of Minnesota,
gopher.micro.umn.edu, port 70.


PROBLEM:

In order to access the BIG-5 Gopher servers in Taiwan, your local
Gopher client needs to be 8-bit clean.  The most commonly used Unix
Gopher client is not 8-bit clean, because it uses the Berkeley curses
library.


SOLUTION:

One solution that has been mentioned here on CCNET is to recompile
your Unix Gopher client using the System V curses library.

I want to mention another solution.  Namely, I suggest using Scott
Snyder's GNU Emacs Gopher client, gopher.el, along with Cemacs (i.e.
Chinese Emacs, essentially an 8-bit clean patched version of GNU Emacs
together with some Emacs Lisp code for use with Chinese).  I tested
this combination and it works fine.  This is probably the best
solution for GNU Emacs users.  Even for non-Chinese use, I like the
GNU Emacs Gopher client much better than the normal standalone Unix
Gopher client.  The fact that it works with Chinese also is just an
extra bonus.

Cemacs (including the 8-bit patch for GNU Emacs) is available for
anonymous ftp at math.psu.edu, pub/simpson/chinese/cemacs.tar.Z.  I am
not sure where to tell you to get gopher.el -- I got it from the
gnu.emacs.sources newsgroup.  I can send it to anyone who wants it,
but please don't ask me for it unless you have already installed
Cemacs.  By the way, in order to use gopher.el you will also need
forms.el and background.el, both available on the Emacs Lisp archive
at archive.cis.ohio-state.edu, directory pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive/.

PS

In my previous posting on this topic, I forgot to mention:

When using gopher.el inside cemacs to access the Chinese Gopher
servers in Taiwan, you will probably want to define and execute the
following emacs command:

(defun gopher-global-cxterm-mode ()
  "Enable cxterm mode in all subsequently created gopher buffers."
  (interactive)
  (setq gopher-directory-mode-hook 'cxterm-mode)
  (setq gopher-document-mode-hook 'cxterm-mode)
  (setq gopher-form-mode-hook 'cxterm-mode)
  (message "All gopher buffers will be in cxterm mode."))

HOW TO ACCESS THE COOMBSQUEST - SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES
INFORMATION FACILITY AT ANU


COOMBSQUEST uses software called gopher and will work best with  gopher
software on your own computer system pointing at:
        Name=COOMBSQUEST Soc.Sci & Humanities Inf.Facility at ANU
        Host=cheops.anu.edu.au
        Type=1
        Port=70
        Path=
============================================================================
=
PLEASE NOTE :
The above interim address will be CHANGED in the near future to the
following
PERMANENT address:
        Name=COOMBSQUEST Soc.Sci & Humanities Inf.Facility at ANU
        Host=coombs.anu.edu.au
        Type=1
        Port=70
        Path=
============================================================================
=
Gopher interface allows files to be downloaded to your machine and for
local
printing. In the case of Macintosh and X terminals graphical  material can
also
be downloaded and displayed.

 However, access to COOMBSQUEST is also available via telnet software. To
do so please
 take these three steps:

* Establish telnet connection with "info.anu.edu.au" using public access
password:
                "info".
* From the ELISA - Electronic Library Information System's menu
                select an option  "Local ANU databases"
* From that level select an option entitled:
                "COOMBSQUEST Soc.Sci & Humanities Inf.Facility (ANU)"

Textual material accessed via this method can be viewed on  the screen and
then
transmitted to an e-mail address.

-----------------------------------------------------------
        I am done a series of article entitled "The current
        Usenet report". These articles, written in Chinese, are
        totally written from  users' point of view, instead of the
        technical one. (I, in fact, have few ideas how to set
        thing up for low level transportation).

        These artilces are basically to help you HOW TO ACCESS TO
        USENET RESOURCE, or say how to benefit from joining it.
        The other aim is also to help raise the Netnews populations
        for people in Taiwan (users on Taiwan Internet, in other word).
        It lists a lot of examples for those useful documents
        dynamically retrieved from Usenet itself. These artilces
        should be especially useful for people under Taiwan Internet,
        because it ends with a conclusion on "The Usenet under
        Taiwan Internet". Everything that the author refers is
        also available via either FTP or ftp-mail server. You will
        be told how to retrieve them at the end of the artilce
        with actual examples again.

        Please also note that, these articles are based on the
        author's limited experiences plus a lot of support materials
        retreived from Usenet itself mostly. The
        author doesn't trust everything he knew/heard is
        applicable/correct, so that your comments/corrections
        are very appreciated.

           The following details the contents of these artilce.

        This article is entitled "How to send Chinese mail".
        It basically shows you how to send Chinese mail
        step by step no matter your mail system supports Chinese or
        not, plus that it also tells you a little bit technical
        stuffs about Chinese coding (don't fear, just a little :-)
        I feel that you will absolutely need such a knowledge as
        long as your chinese email is going to reach somewhere outside
        Taiwan especially US or Canada.


        The examples used on the article are based on UNIX system
        only, so that for those IBM VM/CMS, MVS, or DEC VAX/VMS
        users, you need to additionally refer to Internet-Tools
        (chapter 1-2 and 1-4).

        This article will probably show up on UNIXWorld magazine
        Chinese edition from Taipei. It will also soon be appended
        to Internet-Tools shortly later. (I am going to update
        the Internet-Tools as soon as the NCTUCCCA.edu.tw achive
        is recovered.) Hope this article will show up on
        /Chinese/Internet-Tools directory, named "chap1-6.big".

Hi,
   Because many of you are interested in the most useful dos programs
from the free/shareware world, I forwarded this file to the net. It
includes two parts, the second part is following in next mail...

        Useful MSDOS Programs at SIMTEL20 and Garbo (Part 1 of 2)
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
         ****   The Ultimate Guide to MSDOS Archive Files   ****

Version: 2.6  April 29, 1993

Compiled by Samuel Ko (sko@wimsey.bc.ca)

This is a good selection of the "best" sharewares and freewares that are
available from SIMTEL20 (wsmr-simtel20.army.mil) - the largest depository
of MSDOS files - and Garbo (garbo.uwasa.fi) - a good alternative to SIMTEL20.

This list contains many commonly-and-frequently-wanted sharewares/freewares/
public domain programs. So, before you post any requests for ftp'able MSDOS
files in comp.archives.msdos.d, comp.binaries.ibm.pc.wanted or other msdos/pc
newsgroups, please try to read the list first. This will help reduce the
traffic in those groups a bit. Besides you might find some other interesting
stuff here.

As it is more convenient to ftp files from SIMTEL20's mirror sites than
SIMTEL20 itself, so I use the directories of oak.oakland.edu (the most
up-to-date mirror site) instead. Besides, many other SIMTEL20's mirror sites
actually mirror files from oak.oakland.edu.

If you want to use the parent site (SIMTEL20) or other mirror sites (e.g.
wuarchive.wustl.edu), please change the path name accordingly. Here is how
to do it:  (`whatever' is the name of subdirectory to be substituted)

oak: /pub/msdos/whatever = SIMTEL20: pd1:<msdos.whatever>
                         = wuarchive: /mirrors/msdos/whatever

Please note that garbo is mirrored in N. America at wuarchive. Therefore
garbo: /pc/whatever = wuarchive: /mirrors/garbo.uwasa.fi/whatever

For info on other SIMTEL20 and Garbo mirror sites, please see Appendix 1.

If you do not have ftp access, please read Appendix 2 for instructions
on how to obtain most of the files listed below by e-mail.

Thanks to all who have helped in improving the list. However, to save
some bandwidth, I do not want to include a long list (over 200 names) of
acknowledgment. I do sincerely thank each and every one of you who has
contributed to this compilation in one way or the other. So, this collection
is the product of the combined wisdom of many netnews readers and archive
users. (yes, errors and shortcomings are my responsibility :-)

Any further comments and suggestions will be very much appreciated. I am
particularly interested in any programs that you think are better than those
listed below.

The list should be (more or less) accurate as of April 28, 1993. However, as
the world of archive files is rapidly changing, many entries here may be
dated soon. So, please read the newsgroup comp.archives.msdos.announce or
consult the index files of the archive sites to keep yourself informed of the
latest uploads and changes.

I will try to update and post this regularly.

General format of an entry:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Program:  Name and/or Description
Version:  The latest release
Upload Date:  The date the program was uploaded to SIMTEL20 or oak
File:  The name of the file that corresponds to the program
Size:  The size of the archive file
Location:  The directory from which the file can be found
Status:  Shareware / Freeware Info
         Shareware - copyrighted (or patented) programs distributed and sold
         on a "try before you buy" basis.
         Freeware - copyrighted programs which do not require compensation
         for use in most cases.
         Public Domain - free from copyrights; open to use by anyone
         without compensation.

Trivia ...
1) purposes ?
   This is a collection of many useful, common, and popular sharewares,
   freewares, and public domain programs ... It will (I hope) give you
   (especially those who are new to the world of archive files) a good idea
   on the range of files and programs you can obtain from major DOS ftp
   sites ...

2) "useful" ?
   a) most of the programs listed below should enhance DOS in one way or
      another ...
   b) most of them should work on any DOS-based computers (from XTs to
      486s, from monochrome to SVGA, etc ...)
   c) most of them can be run by intuition, i.e. you don't have to read
      the manuals pages after pages to get the programs started ...
      "If an experienced user who is not familiar with the particular
      program is still practically stuck after the first ten minutes, the
      user interface of a PD or a shareware program is unacceptable, however
      good and useful the application may otherwise be." - Timo Salmi
   d) most of them should be relatively bug-free ...
   e) most of them are "scholarly" (i.e. no games or gif files) ...

3) to get this compilation ? ...
   a) you're reading it now ... so, save it ... :-)
   b) this compilation and a hypertext version are archived at SIMTEL20
      and Garbo (and, of courses, their mirror sites) ...
      e.g.  oak.oakland.edu: /pub/msdos/info/useful26.zip
            garbo.uwasa.fi: /pc/filelist/useful26.zip
   c) the plain text version can also be obtained from the ftp sites
      archiving news.answers articles ...
      e.g. rtfm.mit.edu:  /pub/usenet/news.answers/msdos-archives/part1
           (18.70.0.226)  /pub/usenet/news.answers/msdos-archives/part2
                          /pub/usenet/news.answers/msdos-archives/diff

4) my top 20 ...
    1)  pkz204g.exe              11)  fff43.zip
    2)  qedit215.zip             12)  asa55c-{1,2}.zip

BTW, for a comparison of different compression programs, take a look at
the file arctst02.zip (oak: /pub/info) ... And according to Greg Flint who
did the tests: "In general, the fastest archiver and de-archiver were PKZIP
2.04g and its companion PKUNZIP.  The greatest compression was achieved by

Comment: GNU zip is designed to replace UNIX's Compress ... gzip uses the
         same algorithm as Info-Zip's zip, so it can compress better than
         Compress and is free of any patent disputes ...

         To uncompress *.z (files compressed with gzip), type gzip -d *.z ...

   compression/decompression programs for many different operating systems.

3) If you're familiar with C programming, the book "The Data Compression Book"
   (written by Mark Nelson and published by M&T) should enable you to have a
   good understanding on different compression techniques.

Appendix 2: Obtaining files by e-mail
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you do not have ftp access, you can obtain the files archived at
SIMTEL20 and Garbo by e-mail ...

Keith Petersen, the moderator of SIMTEL20, writes:

If you do not have FTP access to SIMTEL20 or its mirrors, files may be
ordered by e-mail from these servers:

Location        EARN/BITNET          Internet
--------------  ----------------     ----------------------------------
In USA:         LISTSERV@NDSUVM1     LISTSERV@VM1.NODAK.EDU
In USA:         LISTSERV@RPITSVM     LISTSERV@VM.ITS.RPI.EDU

In Italy:       TRICKLE@IMIPOLI
In Belgium:     TRICKLE@BANUFS11     TRICKLE@CCS.UFSIA.AC.BE
In Austria:     TRICKLE@AWIWUW11
In Germany:     TRICKLE@DEARN        TRICKLE@VM.GMD.DE
In Israel:      TRICKLE@TAUNIVM      TRICKLE@VM.TAU.AC.IL
In Netherlands: TRICKLE@HEARN        TRICKLE@HEARN.NIC.SURFNET.NL
In France:      TRICKLE@FRMOP11      TRICKLE@FRMOP11.CNUSC.FR
In Colombia:    TRICKLE@UNALCOL      TRICKLE@UNALCOL.UNAL.EDU.CO
In Sweden:      TRICKLE@SEARN        TRICKLE@SEARN.SUNET.SE

If your mailer wants bang paths: uunet!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
                                 uunet!vm.its.rpi.edu!listserv

If you use bang paths, substitute your nearest neighbor which is also
on the Internet for uunet in the examples above.  Some examples are:
ames, decvax, decwrl, harvard, hplabs, nosc, rutgers, sharkey, sun,
ucbvax, ucsd, udel, uw-beaver, wuarchive.

Send these commands to the server to get its help files:

Use this command for LISTSERV:   GET PDGET HELP
 Use this command for TRICKLE:   /HELP

Sample command (which gets our catalog of MS-DOS files):

/PDGET MAIL PD:<MSDOS.FILEDOCS>SIMLIST.ZIP UUENCODE

These commands should be sent as the body of a regular email message.
Do not include a signature because it confuses the server.  If you
have xxdecode, you may wish to specify XXENCODE instead of UUENCODE to
avoid character translation problems.

SIMTEL20 does *not* run these servers.  Comments, questions, and
suggestions should be directed to the LISTSERV or TRICKLE manager at
one of these addresses, depending on which server you normally use:

                          Internet                  BITNET

        "John Fisher" <FISHER@VM.ITS.RPI.EDU>   <FISHER@RPITSVM>
         "Marty Hoag" <INFO@VM1.NODAK.EDU>      <INFO@NDSUVM1>
"TRICKLE Maintainers" <RED-BUG@EGE.EDU.TR>      <RED-BUG@TREARN>

Please do NOT send your comment or question about the servers to SIMTEL20.
However, if you wish to report a program bug or to request information
on how to upload files to SIMTEL20, you may send e-mail to me at one
of the addresses below.

   ›Note: Do not use ftp-by-mail servers without the permission of your
   system administrator and (if fed via uucp) your uucp feed.  Thank
   you.  Justification: many sites simply don't have the disk space
   set up to do this without warning, and mail disruption may result.|

Timo Salmi, the moderator of Garbo, writes:

To get files sent to you by email, please use our mail server.
To get more information write a message to mailserv@garbo.uwasa.fi.
The subject line of this message must be
   garbo-request
The message must contain just the following text (at the beginning
of the line):
   send help
Do not include a signature because it may confuse the server.

Our customary format for the file names when announcing programs for
ANONYMOUS FTP is e.g.
    garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/dirutil/dirmat20.zip  or
    /pc/dirutil/dirmat20.zip
IMPORTANT!!! The format for the MAIL SERVER is slightly different:
    send pc/dirutil/dirmat20.zip
In other words omit / from the path when using our mail server.

If you don't get any response to your mail server requests, under no
circumstances keep sending the same request over and over again.
Please ask your own site's system manager to construct a returnable
mail path for you.

Appendix 3: Getting upload announcements by e-mail
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have netnews access, you can read the upload announcements on the
(moderated) comp.archives.msdos.announce newsgroup, otherwise, you can
subscribe to the mailing list below and get announcements in the
digest format.

From: w8sdz@tacom-emh1.army.mil (Keith Petersen)
Subject: Mailing list for MS-DOS file upload announcements

MSDOS-Ann@TACOM-EMH1.Army.Mil is a ONE-WAY (moderated) mailing list
which is used by the Internet MS-DOS archive managers to announce new
additions to their collections.

To add yourself to the mailing list send e-mail to
listserv@TACOM-EMH1.Army.Mil with this command in the
body of the message:

    subscribe msdos-ann

To subscribe something other than the account the mail is coming from,
such as a local redistribution list, then add that address to the
"subscribe" command; for example, to subscribe "local-msdos-ann":

    subscribe local-msdos-ann@your.domain.net msdos-ann

SIMTEL20 and Garbo information files, back issues of the digest, and
programs to break the digest into individual messages are available.
To receive a list, send a message to listserv@TACOM-EMH1.Army.Mil with
this command in the body of the message:

    info

Administrative mail may be sent to msdos-ann-request@TACOM-EMH1.Army.Mil
but please use the mailing list server to add or delete yourself from the
list.  If you wish to unsubscribe, send mail (from the same address where
you were when you subscribed) to listserv@TACOM-EMH1.Army.Mil with this
command in the body of the message:

    unsubscribe msdos-ann

Send mail with the word  help  in the body of the message to get a
complete list of commands and their syntax.

This server is only for mailing lists and information files.  It will
not send program files.  Please do not include a signature because it
may confuse the server.

Appendix 4: How to do anonymous ftp?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ftp = file transfer protocol ...

Anonymous ftp ? ... a way of allowing you to sign on a computer on the
Internet and copy specific public files (softwares and various kind of
info) from it.

The following is a _typical_ ftp session (on a Unix machine) ...
Suppose you want to get unz50p1.exe and gsz1109.zip from oak.oakland.edu ...

$  ftp  <enter>
ftp> open oak.oakland.edu  <enter>    or   open 141.210.10.117  <enter>

Alternative ways to do anonymous ftp ...
1) I've got UNIX shell scripts that can enable you auto-ftp MSDOS files
   from any SIMTEL20 and Garbo mirror sites. If you want to get them, send me
   an e-mail.

2) There are a couple of versatile programs that automate the ftp process ...
   a) autoftp   -  oak: /pub/misc/unix/autoftp30.tar-z
                -  garbo: /unix/ftp/autoftp3.zoo
   b) batchftp  -  oak: /pub/misc/unix/batchftp102.tar-z
                -  garbo: /unix/ftp/batchftp102.tar.Z  (also batchftp.inf)
                batchftp requires the Berkeley Unix system (e.g. a SUN) ...

The folks at ANU (Australian National University, Canberra, Australia)
have recently upgraded their WAIS databases, so that they now present much
more useful headings.  For example, the database "ANU-Asian-Computing",
which contains a lot of CCNET-L postings, presents Subject: headers.
The database "ANU-Local-Waiservers" provides a local index.

These databases may also be accessed through gopher.  Here is their card:

and the others mentioned, are not exactly suitable for novice users.

Here is the README:

A few programs for manipulating Unicode/ISO-10646 text encoded in FSS-UTF
(a.k.a. UTF-2 or just UTF):

	hexutf - convert 4-digit hexadecimal codes in an ASCII file to UTF.
	unicode - generate a table of UTF-encoded chars.
	utfascii - convert UTF text to ASCII bitmaps.
	utfps - convert UTF text to Postscript.

Suitable 24-pixel fonts are in ifcss.org:/software/fonts/unicode24/.
Currently only the Latin-1, CJK Auxiliary and UniHan ranges are handled.
You'll also need files from ifcss.org:/software/fonts/HBF/c/hbf.tar.Z
for the last two programs.

For more information about
- each program, see the header comments
- UTF, see research.att.com:/dist/plan9man/09utf.ps.Z
  (Plan 9 is a research version of Unix.)
- Unicode, see the above paper and various files at unicode.org and metis.com

Other freely available stuff using the UTF encoding:

	research.att.com:/dist/sam/
		an X windows port of the Plan 9 editor Sam.
	research.att.com:/dist/tcs.shar.Z
		translation between a wide variety of character codes
		(including the wrong Big-5).
	ftp.cs.su.oz.au:/matty/unicode/9term.tar.Z
		a Plan 9 terminal emulator for X (no curses).
	ftp.cs.su.oz.au:/matty/unicode/libXg.utf.fonts.tar.Z
		various fonts for Sam and 9term -- see also /matty/incoming/

uploading your file to an incoming area.

It is, if you have the right software.  There is a WAIS database called
ANU-Asian-Computing (ANU = Australian National University, in Canberra).
The bulk of the stuff in there is from CCNET-L, minus some of the rubbish.
If you have Mosaic or some other WWW browser, you can access it via the URL

        wais://coombs.anu.edu.au/ANU-Asian-Computing

If you have gopher, the address is coombs.anu.edu.au, port 70.

The Archie Service at NCTUCCCA.edu.tw is NO LONGER alias to archie.edu.tw.
Now, archie.edu.tw is pointed to archie.ncu.edu.tw because it is the main
archie service provider in Taiwan and indexes all archives around the
world.

A new alias name "archie.TWNIC.NET" is new for NCTUCCCA.edu.tw.  We are
trying to support the TWNIC project in Taiwan.  Currently, we ONLY index
archives in Taiwan BUT are planning to expand our capacity to all Chinese
archives on earth, as per requests of users.

For those who are interested in TWNIC:
        TWNIC is still an experimental project.  It will be the real
        "Internet Network Information Center in Taiwan" in the near
        future!  Although currently TANet (Taiwan Academic Network)
        is the only direct Internet service provider here, the
        ROC's Communication Bureau announced that "they will be the
        2nd direct Internet service provider around the island, and
        the HiNet will be established in 1994.

Hi folks!  The following Chinese files are now available on

                        The SineWave BBS
                        State College, PA
                        (814) 237-2117

A special account has also been setup for the transfer of Chinese files.  If
you're long distance caller, you can use the following user ID for fast log on.

                        User First Name:  anonymous
                        User Last Name :  transfer
                        User Password  :  chinese

You can also type "anonymous transfer chinese" while the system prompts you
for you first name.

If you don't have access to FTP, please download CATALOUE.ZIP, this file is
a partial list of the Chinese programs/utilities available at IFCSS.ORG, a
major InterNet FTP site for Chinese computing.

Let me know if you're interested at any other particular files in the list,
I will try to get them for you within a week upon request.

Again, thanks go to David Perkowski, Sysop of The SineWave BBS, he made
tremendous efforts for setting this account up and putting all these
disk suckers on his bulletin board.

Hi,

I promised some friends while I was in Penn State for the winter break (what
a winter that was), that I shall reorganize my anonymous ftp server for a
better service on Chinese classical text in Big-5 code.  Now I have been
in Taiwan for two weeks and I have not much time to fulfill my promise.

My decision is to keep the original structure of our ftp server.  It is
now on a DECstation 5125, and one year later we shall move it to a faster
machine.  The current structure is similar to that in math.psu.edu.  Namely,
each faculty member in my department has a directory under /pub and he/she
is responsible for his/her own stuff in that directory.

In /pub/shann/chinese/literature, I shall submit my collection of Chinese text,
with my taste of choices and my preferred format.  And I am responsible for
proof readings.  It is really a trouble to name the files.  Because Chinese
file names are hard to handle for common ftp users, my current solution is to
put them in ASCII file names and supply a README file for the table of
contents.  Maybe Chen Wei-Wang's CCET project can help later.

For those who are interested, please
        ftp dongpo.math.ncu.edu.tw
or 140.115.25.3, login as an anonymous user, then
        cd /pub/shann/chinese/literature
        get README -
if you are in a monitor that can ready Big-5 code.  This file will tell you
what Chinese texts are under the ASCII named files.

As many may know that we have also a gopher server on the same host.  Over
there are poems piece by piece grouped by authors.  I still think it is a more
efficient way of organizing Chinese text.  You can mail or save the text after
a reading.  The troubles are that (1) you need Chinese viewers on line, (2) it
takes longer if you want to download a lot of poems.

So, my policy is, if an author has more than 10 pieces of works collected in our
gopher server, than I combine them into a single file and make it available for
anonymous ftp.

I update the gopher and ftp repository whenever I have spare time and feel
like to do it.  There will be no scheduled updates.  I shall upload the index
file to these mailing lists when there are substantial changes.

I shall thank all the contributers, in GB or big-5 code, that make this
repository possible.  If you find any typos or mistakes, please mail me.

The following is the current README file, uuencoded.

It's possible. Use http://peacock.tnjc.edu.tw to open connection.

I recently set up a personal World Wide Web page.
It has some links that are related to Chinese Computing.
The URL is http://www.math.psu.edu/simpson/.
You are welcome to browse.

Note: A few days ago I posted a different URL.  That URL will probably
stop working soon, because we have recently reorganized our Web setup.
So please discard the old URL and use the new one,

        over the last week, i have received several useful responses to
my inquiry about finding collections of the chinese classics on cd-rom.
what follows is a brief summary of what i was told:


1.      Academica Sinica has put their chinese system along with the
        25 Histories on a cd-rom.  some university libraries may have
        it in the U.S.  price seems astronomical.  one post said as
        high as $10,000.


2.      Academica Sinica has apparently input the 13 jing zhushu and is in
        the process of proofing it.  what format they will take is unknown
        to me.

3.      Chen Yu-fu at National Taiwan Normal University has put out the
        13 classics on 2 floppies along with concordances.  as of yet,
        i have not be able to get pricing or availability info though.

4.      certain texts of chinese literature and philosophy are available
        from the ftp site: ifcss.org in the china-studies directory.
        many of these are replicated at the gopher site: dongpo.math.ncu.edu.tw

        if any new information comes to light, i'll post it.  i'd also
love to hear from anyone with follow-up information.

        i suspect that as time passes, more electronic sources for chinese
classics will become available.  getting the word out about them would
seem like an important service to the china studies community.

The Deputy Director-General of the National Library of Australia, Eric
Wainwright, today announced that Innovative Interfaces has been selected to
provide software for the Australian National CJK (Chinese, Japanese,
Korean) Project. INNOPAC software was selected because of the quality of
its OPAC and bibliographic database functions, its ability to load data in
various national MARC formats, its flexibility and Innovative Interfaces'
good record of customer support. It is expected that the system will be
operational by early 1995.

The National CJK System will provide a database of bibliographic records
for Chinese, Japanese and Korean material with full support for CJK
scripts. The database will initially contain half a million bibliographic
records, from sources including LC, ABN, OCLC, RLIN and JapanMARC. The CJK
System will be the Australian national union catalogue for CJK items, will
provide copy cataloguing, and will serve as an OPAC for libraries that do
not have CJK script capability in their local systems.

A new feature of the CJK System's installation will be the use of the MASS
software for the input and display of CJK characters. MASS is a friendly,
windows-based package that runs on PCs and Xterminals allowing users to
input CJK characters using a standard qwerty keyboard. It uses Unicode as
its internal code set and optionally supports a number of other character
sets such as Greek and Jawi (an Arabic script). Innovative Interfaces will
integrate MASS with INNOPAC as part of the implementation of the CJK
System. This will bring to three (ETen, Join and MASS) the number of CJK
input software packages supported by Innovative. MASS is a product of
the Institute of Systems Science of the National University of Singapore.

The initial users of the system will be librarians and researchers at the
Australian National University, Griffith University, Monash University,
Murdoch University, University of Melbourne, University of Queensland,
University of Sydney and the National Library of Australia. A number of
other Australian and overseas libraries have expressed interest in using
the system and client numbers are expected to grow rapidly during 1995.

Access to CJK will be through the Internet as well as a gateway from ABN,
however, gateway users will be restricted to a Romanised view of the CJK
database. Charges for new users are expected to be on a subscription basis,
rather than a per-minute or per-command basis, and various levels of
subscription will be available.

For further information please contact Linda Groom (contact details are
below).

Try a look into the CJK package (available at the CTAN hosts
i.e. ftp.dante.de, ftp.shsu.edu, ftp.tex.ac.uk) in the directory

tex-archive/languages/chinese/CJK

(you must get the latest beta version).

It contains a tool to convert the NTU TrueType fonts into PS fonts.

h2b is the hztobig5 gateway
other gateway included b2h (big5tohz), mme (mime encode), mmd (mime decode)

so you can actually send MIME encoded big5, if you want to preserve big5
instead of translating it from HZ which can have some mapping inacuracy, to
