How to get GNU Software by Internet FTP or by UUCP. Last updated 1999-01-20
|
|
|
|
* Please send improvements to this file to gnu@gnu.org.
|
|
|
|
* No Warranties
|
|
|
|
We distribute software in the hope that it will be useful, but without
|
|
any warranty. No author or distributor of this software accepts
|
|
responsibility to anyone for the consequences of using it or for
|
|
whether it serves any particular purpose or works at all, unless he
|
|
says so in writing. This is exactly the same warranty that the commercial
|
|
software companies offer: None. If the distribution is incomplete or the
|
|
media fails, you can always download a replacement from any of the GNU
|
|
mirrors, free of charge.
|
|
|
|
* Updates
|
|
|
|
A possibly more up-to-date list of GNU FTP sites is at
|
|
http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html
|
|
|
|
* How to FTP
|
|
|
|
Use the ftp program on your system (ask locally if you can't find it)
|
|
to connect to the host you are ftping from. Unless indicated
|
|
otherwise, login in as user "anonymous", with password: "your e-mail
|
|
address" and set "binary" mode (to transfer all eight bits in each
|
|
byte).
|
|
|
|
ALWAYS USE BINARY/IMAGE MODE TO TRANSFER THESE FILES!
|
|
Text mode does not work for tar files or compressed files.
|
|
|
|
* GNU Software and How To FTP It
|
|
|
|
GNU software is available on ftp.gnu.org under the directory /gnu.
|
|
diff files to convert between versions exist for some of these
|
|
programs. Some programs have misc support files as well. Have a look
|
|
on ftp.gnu.org to see which ones. In most cases, the tar or diff
|
|
files are compressed with the `gzip' program; this is indicated with
|
|
the .gz suffix.
|
|
|
|
Descriptions of GNU software are available at
|
|
http://www.gnu.org/software/software.html
|
|
|
|
* Alternative Internet FTP Sources
|
|
|
|
Please do NOT use a site outside your country, until you have checked
|
|
all sites inside your country, and then your continent. Trans-ocean
|
|
TCP/IP links are very expensive and usually very low speed.
|
|
|
|
The canonical GNU ftp site is located at ftp.gnu.org/gnu.
|
|
You should probably use one of the many mirrors of that site - the
|
|
mirrors will be less busy, and you can find one closer to your site.

|
* How to FTP GNU Emacs
|
|
|
|
Emacs is in the directory /gnu/emacs on ftp.gnu.org. The emacs
|
|
distribution itself has a filename in the form emacs-M.N.tar.gz, where
|
|
M and N stand for the version numbers; the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual
|
|
is in a separate file, named elisp-manual-NN.tar.gz.
|
|
|
|
* Scheme and How to FTP It
|
|
|
|
The latest distribution version of C Scheme is available via anonymous FTP
|
|
from swiss-ftp.ai.mit.edu in /pub/scheme-X.X/ (where X.X is some version
|
|
number).
|
|
|
|
Read the files INSTALL and README in the top level C Scheme directory.
|
|
|
|
* TeX and How to Obtain It
|
|
|
|
We don't distribute TeX now, but it is free software.
|
|
|
|
TeX is a document formatter that is used, among other things, by the FSF
|
|
for all its documentation. You will need it if you want to make printed
|
|
manuals.
|
|
|
|
TeX is freely redistributable. You can get it by ftp, tape, or CD/ROM.
|
|
|
|
** For FTP instructions, retrieve the file
|
|
ftp.cs.umb.edu/pub/tex/unixtex.ftp. (We don't include it here because it
|
|
changes relatively frequently. Sorry.)
|
|
|
|
** A minimal TeX collection (enough to process Texinfo files, anyway)
|
|
is included on the GNU source CD-ROM. See the file ORDERS in this
|
|
directory for more information.
|
|
|
|
* VMS FTP sites with GNU Software
|
|
You can anonymously ftp a VMS version of GNU emacs from:
|
|
- ftp.vms.stacken.kth.se:[.GNU-VMS] - GNU Emacs and some other VMS
|
|
ports (and some VMS binaries) of GNU software
|
|
- mango.rsmas.miami.edu has a VMS version of the GCC/G++ compiler.
|
|
Contact angel@flipper.miami.edu (angel li) for details.
|
|
- RIGEL.EFD.LTH.SE [130.235.48.3] - GNU Emacs
|
|
|
|
* Getting GNU software in Great Britain
|
|
|
|
jpo@cs.nott.ac.uk is willing to distribute those GNU sources he has
|
|
available. The smaller items are available from the info-server (send
|
|
to info-server@cs.nott.ac.uk); the larger items by negotiation. Due to
|
|
communication costs this service is only available within the UK.
|
|
|
|
BattenIG@computer-science.birmingham.ac.uk (aka
|
|
I.G.Batten@fulcrum.bt.co.uk) is also willing to distribute those GNU
|
|
sources he has.
|
|
|
|
wizards@doc.ic.ac.uk is willing to distribute those GNU sources they have
|
|
along with most other freely distributable software. The SunSITE archive
|
|
on SunSITE.doc.ic.ac.uk (193.63.255.4) is available via ftp, http, fsp,
|
|
gopher, NFS and Lanmanger over IP (SMB), and telnet.
|
|
|
|
UK sites with just anonymous FTP access are in the above list.
|
|
|
|
* Getting GNU software via UUCP
|
|
|
|
OSU is distributing via UUCP: most GNU software, MIT C Scheme,
|
|
Compress, News, RN, NNTP, Patch, some Appletalk stuff, some of the
|
|
Internet Requests For Comment (RFC) et al.. See their periodic
|
|
postings on the Usenet newsgroup comp.sources.d for informational
|
|
updates. Current details from <staff@cis.ohio-state.edu> or
|
|
<...!osu-cis!staff>.
|
|
|
|
Information on how to uucp some GNU programs is available via
|
|
electronic mail from: uunet!hutch!barber, hqda-ai!merlin, acornrc!bob,
|
|
hao!scicom!qetzal!upba!ugn!nepa!denny, ncar!noao!asuvax!hrc!dan,
|
|
bigtex!james (aka james@bigtex.cactus.org), oli-stl!root,
|
|
src@contrib.de (Germany), toku@dit.co.jp (Japan) and info@ftp.uu.net.
|
|

|
* If You Like The Software
|
|
|
|
If you like the software developed and distributed by the Free
|
|
Software Foundation, please express your satisfaction with a donation.
|
|
Your donations will help to support the Foundation and make our future
|
|
efforts successful, including a complete development and operating
|
|
system, called GNU (Gnu's Not Unix), which will run Unix user
|
|
programs. For more information on GNU and the Foundation, contact us
|
|
at the above address, or see our web site at http://www.gnu.org.
|
|
|
|
Ordering a GNU Source Code CD-ROM or Source Code CD-ROM Subscription
|
|
is a good way for your organization to help support our work.
