Commodore FTP Sites for mid-January 1995 From: hlh@panix.com (Howard Herman) This is the list of FTP sites containing software and programs specific to the Commodore 64 and 128 computers, and one Vic20 site. I will try to keep this list as current and accurate as possible, so that it can be a useful resource for users of the newsgroup. PLEASE cooperate and send E-mail with any corrections and updates. If you uncover a site not listed, tell me so that it can be added. If a site has closed or no longer carries CBM software, let me know and it will be deleted. ----- To use this list on a UNIX system, just type 'ftp ', where is any of the sites listed below. Use 'anonymous' as your login, and your E-mail address for the password. You can change and list directories with 'cd' and 'dir', respectively, and download files to your system using 'get'. Be sure to specify either 'binary' if you are getting a program, or 'ascii' for a text file before you begin the download. ----- In addition to the sites listed below, which have CBM software, there are hundreds of other FTP sites on INet with interesting files covering most every other topic imaginable. Take some time to seek out and explore these other sites and their files too. Enjoy! ----- Host: ccnga.uwaterloo.ca Last updated: 01 Apr 1994 Directory: /pub/cbm Description: csbruce@ccnga.uwaterloo.ca (Craig Bruce) maintainer of the site writes: >I have rearranged the files at the new "ccnga.uwaterloo.ca" anonymous FTP >site for Commodore computers. >The new "/pub/cbm" directory breakdown for this site is as follows: > >archivers : archiving/dearchiving programs for the C128/64 >audio : audio-related stuff for the C64 c65 : files related to the C65 computer >comp.binari* : programs from the "comp.binaries.cbm" newsgroup >comp.sys.cbm : important information gleaned from the "comp.sys.cbm" newsgroup >demos : demo programs for the C64 >emulation : programs for emulating the C64 on various platforms >games : games for the C128/64 >graphics : graphics stuff for the C128/64 >hacking.mag : issues of C= Hacking net magazine and related programs >hardware : text files about hardware projects >misc : stuff that doesn't fit into any other directory >os : stuff for various alternative operating systems for the C128/64 >os/ace : stuff for the ACE operating system for the C128/64 >os/cpm : stuff for the CP/M operating system for the C128/64 >os/cs-dos : stuff for the CS-DOS operating system for the C128 >os/geos : stuff for the GEOS operating system for the C128/64 >programming : programming ideas/code/stuff for the C128/64 >telecomm : telecommunications software for the C128/64 >unix : related utility C programs and Unix shell scripts >util128 : utility programs for the C128 >util64 : utility programs for the C64 >vic-20 : VIC-20 programs >INCOMING : directory to upload new programs into (use appropriate subdir) Host: ftp.funet.fi (128.214.6.100) Last updated: 05 May 1994 Directory: /pub/cbm /pub/misc/c64 /pub/kermit/c64 /pub/amiga/audio/misc/sid-tunes /pub/cpm Description: Most files in /pub/cpm run on the C128's CP/M.
