Uploading to Atari.archive.umich.edu and Posting to comp.{binaries,sources}.atari.st By Jeff Weiner, Atari.archive Guardian How to upload to atari.archive.umich.edu: There are two main ways to upload to the archive: FTP or mail 1: FTP - This is the preferred method, as it doesn't clog my mailbox with megs and megs of stuff, not to mention it's a bit easier for you too. First, create a small text file with descriptions of each file you want to upload contained within (see 0README_ALL_UPLOADERS in /New). Logon to the archive as usual, then issue the following commands cd ~atari/New type binary put filename.ext put descriptionfile.ext Ed Krimen, ekrimen@ecst.csuchico.edu, adds this: For those that may not know, may I add that, for aesthetic effects, if you enter "hash," before you "put filename.ext" or "get filename.ext," the ftp program will display a # for every 1024 bytes sent or received. Actually, when you 'put' a file, it will display bunch of # at once. Moreover, if you enter "bell," it will sound your system bell when a function has completed. Finally, you can send and receive a list of files using the "mput" and "mget" commands, respectively, with a list of the files after the command. 2: MAIL - This is a bit slower for you and for me, but is still very effective. Simply uuencode the file, (please split it into parts ~=60 K or less please) and mail the result to boydm@atari.archive.umich.edu. Please name the parts in the subject line. This is really helpfull as the parts usually don't arrive in the proper sequence. Also, please include a message labeled file transmission, containing a short description of the file, etc.
