Could anybody clarify this? That host is running some kind of wierd software that starts you out in the middle of nowhere. Try 'cd k2:' followed by 'mget vmslz*.*' The "vmslz*" stuff is the vms port of the unix compress. It's pretty extensively modified. The source on cu20b is in some sort of "archive" format. It's just some ordinary ascii files concatenated together with a one-line header for each new file, so don't let the .ARC file extensions fool you. George Seibel seibel@cgl.ucsf.edu
