Getting a Distribution Copy of dstool

There are three ways to get a distribution copy of the dstool program:


Ethernet: 		The dstool distribution may be obtained from an archive server supported by the 

Center for Applied Mathematics at Cornell University. The server network address
is macomb.tn.cornell.edu (internet address: 128.84.237.12). Access to the server
is best accomplished using the ARPANET standard File Transfer Protocol (ftp),
a utility which facilitates the transfer of files between network sites. Section 0.4.1.1
contains more details about downloading dstool from the network.

Diskette: The dstool program and manuals can be packaged on a set of 3.5 inch diskettes
which may be read on a Sun diskette drive. Instructions for extracting the software
from the diskettes using standard Sun operating system commands are presented in
Section 0.4.1.2.

Tape: Source code and documentation are stored on a 1/4 inch distribution tape using the
UNIX tape archive (tar) utility. Write to authors enclosing a blank tape to get
a distribution copy of dstool. Instructions for reading the distribution tape are
given in Section 0.4.1.3.

Inquiries regarding tape and diskette distribution copies may be addressed to:
