| Try ftpmail to find those tidbits you like. You can get the individual
files. The following will get you a directory.

| I'm interested in these fish disks too. I don't have access (as far as I
know) to FTP. Is anybody still uploading fish disks?

Everybody has access to FTP, even my "small" AmigaUUCP site at home (tried
it this weekend to see if all those "Can't get FTPMAIL to work" messages on
UseNet are true [they're pilot errors, as far as I'm concerned]).
Do a "Dir FTP" on this and the UPSAR::GATEWAYS conference to learn about
FTPMAIL (just mentioned a reply earlier).
And yes, there are several people uploading fish disks and if YOU have them
or anything else that you think could be worthwhile to the lot of us, don't
hesitate to upload it.
I would like to get the next 10 disks as soon as anybody else, but I somehow
don't feel like puzzling together ~100 FTPMAIL messages right now... ;-)
Cheers,
<CB>

Well I just finished FTT ing the files over the weekend (96 mail
messages)
I uucatted them and will be uploading them to eot
One thing is that they have the extra directory (ff58X) in the
path...I beleive this is how they are storing them on the informatic
system I FTPed from....

And this is or at least may be the culprit. If the archive wasn't created
on an Amiga (with the proper flags set), all file attributes, like the
pure bit or filenotes are lost.
This renders those archive not worthless, but a lot less authentic and
eventually troublesome to figure out if that particular utility can be
made resident or not...
