It would be great if you could set up a ftp site just for 64/128. Personally I would like to see the following in the site: 1. a directory like /pub/term where the terminal programs can be found. 2. a dir. like /pub/util where utility programs like LYNX, ARC, LADS, etc can be found. 3. a section where a digest of frequently asked questions on HARDWARE can be found e.g., "Can my BI-80 do...", "What disk drive is good for...", "Where can I get a RS232 interface " 4. a section where a digest of frequently asked questions on SOFTWARE can be found e.g., "How can I make KERMIT do..." "Can I use WTERMITE to...", "What can I do with the xxx menu in GEOS" Just a bunch of un-organised thoughts ! /:-) Patrick Wong pcw@squid.tn.cornell.edu
