>GETTING OMACL TEXTS:

>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.
