>GETTING OMACL TEXTS:
>All OMACL texts are Public Domain in the United States, and are released in
>straight ASCII format.  Texts are released in two forms: Online via the Web
>site, and compressed at the FTP site.  Compression is done using PKZIP v.
>2.04g, which can be obtained from just about any BBS or online service.  A
>copy of the shareware version of PKUNZIP is available in the UKANAIX
>directory mentioned below.  MACUSERS: Look for a good ZIP to STUFFIT utility
>before decompressing these files.
>
>Please note that web versions of OMACL texts are usually not posted until
>after the ASCII version is made available.
>
>Texts are available from the following sites:

>States.  Please check with the copyright laws of your country before
>distributing outside of the United States.
