ACCESSING THE QRD VIA FTP

   To access the QRD by FTP you must issue these commands:
        ftp ftp.qrd.org

   or
        ftp 204.91.98.64

   [Note: IP numbers are subject to change at any time without notice. If
   your software dictates that you use IP numbers for internet
   connections, change it!]
   
   Log in as "anonymous" or "ftp" and at the password prompt, enter your
   email address -- make sure it has an @ sign, or you will be denied
   access. Then enter:
        cd /pub/QRD

   Then before you start, you should look at the README file. The
   HIGHLIGHTS file is also useful to get a sense of what files are
   popular. To get these files, issue the commands:
        get 00README
        get 0HIGHLIGHTS
   
  
   If your system needs to have filenames of another type you can change
   the name that the file you are getting will have on your local system
   by simply giving it. So you would say:
        get 0QRD-BY-GOPHER qrdgopher.txt

   and then the file would appear on your local system as 'qrdgopher.txt'
   and not 0QRD-BY-GOPHER.
   
   You can look at these files by either leaving FTP by issuing "bye" or
   "quit" or "exit". Or, from a UNIX box, you could suspend FTP by
   sending a "^Z" [control-Z] then looking at the files README and
   HIGHLIGHTS on your system and then re-starting FTP by issuing a "fg"
   command.
   
   Then you can "cd" to whereever you want and get the desired file from
   that directory. Look at the GUIDE file to see the full directory
   structure of the QRD.
   
   If you would like to ADD materials to the QRD please leave them in the
   /pub/QRD/incoming directory. You can also submit materials by email at
   submissions@qrd.org.
