65 new files at mac.archive.umich.edu (13-Apr-96) Yup! Here's another list of excellent files that can be found on > mac.archive.umich.edu <, an excellent site dedicated to advancing shareware and freeware for that most excellent of personal computers, the Apple Macintosh. If you have any questions on how to get at the archives (besides our always overloaded main ftp server, we have easy and unlimited access via the AFS distributed file system, Gopher, WWW and a mail server), or if you have problems retrieving the files, drop us a note at "questions@mac.archive.umich.edu". A lot of questions have been sent directly to me, and being perpetually swamped with stuff to do, I'm always behind on replying. Sending the problems to "questions" gets a much faster response from our most excellent staff of volunteers. And of course, if you have suggestions, "comments@mac.archive.umich.edu" is another good address to use. We like ideas (that are, hopefully, easy to put in place and very beneficial). But anyways, enough evangelizing. Here's the list of new files for the past couple weeks.
