   Here's how the disks ended up looking in the ASCII Art Resources file:

   And the computers connected together, were used as decoration for the 
FTP instructions:


   If you have FTP at your site, and you want to FTP over to say, Chris King's
FTP site, on most Unix based InterNet sites, you would:
 
   o  Type "ftp ftp.ncsu.edu" at the prompt.  Notice that "ftp" was typed
      twice.  The first is the command, the second is a port of the address.
      If you're already at an ftp prompt, type "open ftp.ncsu.edu".
 
   o  When the connection opens, it'll ask for your name.  This is 'anonymous
      FTP' so type "anonymous".
                                      __________             ______________
   o  When it asks for a password,   |:""""""""|:           |  ..........  :
      type your email address.       |:        |:           | :          | :
      You should be logged in.       |: >boba  |:           | :          | :
                                     |:________|:           | :>@wwa.com | :
   o  To 'Change Directory' over     |   .....  :---_____---| :__________| :
      to Chris' ASCII folder, type   |  '-----" :           |..............:
      "cd pub/ncsu/chking/Archive".  | @        :"-__-_     |"""""""""""""":
                                     |..........:    _-"    |..............:
   o  Type "ls".  This will list     / :::::::: \   /\      / :::::::: ::: \
      the contents of the folder.   /____________\ (__)    /________________\
 
   o  Let's say you want a file called "Funnies", you would type "get
      Funnies".  The file will be transfered to the host you FTP'd from, in
      the folder you were in when you started that FTP session.
 
   o  When you're done, type "bye" and press the return.  It will say goodbye
      and quit.  If you just want to switch to another site, type "close".
      You will be at the ftp prompt, where you can type "open ftp.wwa.com" (or
      whatever site).


   That's it for my liddle diddles.
