Directory PD1:<MSDOS.DESKPUB> Filename Type Length Date Description ============================================== OCR104.ZIP B 93310 910424 Optical character recognition for scanners OCRSHR22.ZIP B 389165 910424 Optical character reader for scanners Image conversion programs are in directory pd1:<msdos.graphics>. An index of all files in the WSMR-SIMTEL20.Army.Mil MS-DOS collection is available in two formats: Directory PD1:<MSDOS.FILEDOCS> Filename Type Description ============================================== SIMIBM.ZIP B Comma-delim list of all MSDOS files w/descrip. SIMLIST.ZIP B Text format list of all MSDOS files w/descrip. These files are updated every 7-10 days. See AAAREAD.ME in that directory for details. SIMTEL20 allows only nine ANONYMOUS FTP logins during weekday prime time, 5am to 3pm Mountain Time (GMT-7), but 27 otherwise. SIMTEL20 files are also available by anonymous ftp from mirror sites OAK.Oakland.Edu (141.210.10.117), wuarchive.wustl.edu (128.252.135.4), ftp.uu.net (137.39.1.9), nic.funet.fi (128.214.6.100), src.doc.ic.ac.uk (146.169.3.7), nic.switch.ch (130.59.1.40), archie.au (139.130.4.6), nctuccca.edu.tw (140.111.3.21), by e-mail through the BITNET/EARN file servers, or by uucp from UUNET's 1-900-GOT-SRCS. See UUNET file uunet!~/info/archive-help for details. OAK.Oakland.Edu is the primary mirror site for WSMR-SIMTEL20.Army.Mil. All other mirrors (except wuarchive) and all LISTSERV and TRICKLE servers get their SIMTEL20 files from OAK instead of SIMTEL20 because it is much faster and allows more simultaneous ftp connections. OAK is always "in sync" with SIMTEL20 because I maintain it, in addition to my duties at SIMTEL20. I run OAK's mirror program whenever new files are added at SIMTEL20.
