FTPd server software (ftpd)
ftp://ftp.amug.org/pub/peterlewis/home-page.html
Make your SLIP/PPP home Mac a dedicated ftp server! Easy to set-up and use.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MailShare
http://www.winternet.com/~carl/mailshare/mail.html
Easily set-up a mailserver on a Mac. Can support static IP addresses. Also
check out links to AutoShare (an easy to set-up listserv engine for the
Macintosh) Look Ma - no more majordomo! Make your own Mac a listserver!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Macjordomo WWW site
http://leuca.med.cornell.edu/Macjordomo
This is a fantastically good free Mac list server. This is the perfect
companion to MailShare which is also free (a Mac-based Internet mail
server that supports POP [Post Office Protocol] and SMTP [Simple Mail
Transfer Protocol]). Macjordomo has many features of Majordomo which is the
popular unix listserver. The difference is that Macjordomo puts all the
core features of Majordomo into a very easy to use "Mac-i-fied" package.
Creating and maintaining a listserv doesn't get any easier than this folks!
The Mac now has the ability to be used as a "complete" server solution for
Internet connections with relatively inexpensive shareware or freeware.
Just think - an ftp site with ftpd - listserv with Macjordomo - a POP
mail server with MailShare - a Web server with MacHTTP or httpd - and the
list goes on... <g> Look Ma! No more Unix!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mail server and Listserv commands FTP site
ftp://ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu/nettrain/mailser.cmd
Jim Milles has made this ftp site available that has a collection of
mail serve and listserv commands explained in a helpful document. The
commands are found in and supported by most mail server software. A
great resource when you forget the command to unsubscribe to a listserv
or a mailing list as you're getting ready to go on a vacation. Yikes!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
zNet Mac Archive
http://www.znet.com/mac/netapps.html
Everything you need here to get started on the Internet and general Mac
networking. All the needed utility software and more. Even has brief
explanations on what much of the software does. A great "one-stop" shopping
site to pick up all those Internet tools and applications you need to
help connect, decode and decompress things on the 'net. A good beginner
site. Links to the home zMac archive for Macintosh. This is not to be
confused with Ziffnet/Mac which is another Mac related affair...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
BBEdit Lite
ftp://mrcnext.cso.uiuc.edu//pub/info-mac/text/bbedit-lite-30.hqx
Fantastic freeware version of BBEdit. Every Mac user should have this
excellent text editor. Accepts all BBEdit plug-in extensions tools. Get it.

ftp://rever.nmsu.edu://pub/macfaq
Contains a complete archive of MacFAQs. Very informative reading. All Mac
users that want to get the most out of their Mac and learn neat tips and
tricks should amble on over to this site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Web Browsers
Lynx (unix dial-ups)
anon ftp to:
ftp2.cc.ukans.edu located in --> /pub/WWW/lynx
Cern Line Browser (text line browser)
ftp to: ftp.w3.org
MacWeb Software (Web browser for SLIP/PPP connected Macs)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adobe Systems (Acrobat Reader for PDF documents - freeware)
ftp to: ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/Acrobat/Applications
WWW URL: http://www.adobe.com
If you get the most recent full version of Acrobat then you also receive
within the large download the newest full version of ATM for Type 1 fonts.
ATM (Adobe Type Manager) is a System INIT designed to give the user smooth
font outlines onscreen by rasterizing font outlines via the postscript font
files. No user should be without ATM that uses Postscript fonts. Period.
You will need to have at least one bitmap font size installed. 12 point is
a good choice although many users choose to keep more than one bmap size.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Envoy Distributable Viewer
http://www.novell.com
This is Novell's WWW Home page and the Envoy document viewer is available
for download here free of charge. The viewer lets users view, annotate and
highlite existing Envoy cross-platform docs. You cannot create Envoy docs
with the viewer. Novell is hoping Envoy will become the new standard of
cross-platform shareable docs so you'll be seeing more of 'em out there.

MPEG Viewer and converter for Mac - SPARKLE (freeware)
ftp://ftp.utexas.edu/pub/mac/graphics
ftp://gatekeeper.dec.com/.3/net/infosys/Mac-Mosaic/Helpers/
ftp://sumex-aim.stanford.edu/info-mac/grf/util
ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Mac/Mosaic/Helpers/
ftp://freebsd.cdrom.com/.13/mac/umich/graphics/graphicsutil/
gopher://gopher.archive.umich.edu:7055/11/mac/graphics/graphicsutil/
Hopefully one of these sites will be available to you! In each of the
sites above the application you are looking for is called "Sparkle"
or more correctly "sparkle242.hqx". The new version of Sparkle (v2.4.2)
now only supports Mac System 7.5. This does not mean that System 7.0,
7.0.1, or System 7.1 users can't run Sparkle but they will have to pick up
the needed extension "Thread Manager" on their own. System 7.5 includes the
"Thread Manager" extension. If you use a system older than 7.5 you MUST
install the Thread Manager. So where can you get the Thread Manager? It's
bundled with the Turbo-Gopher client (v2.0) from the Univ of Minnesota.
It's a good idea to get Turbo-Gopher anyway (if using a SLIP/PPP) so you'll
be doing yourself a favor all around! Sparkle works great and you can also
convert MPEG encoded files into QuickTime movies with this software. It
can also read and convert PICT files as well. This is a *must* have piece
of software for every Mac user out there! Simply fantastic! Get it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Groovy Free Mac Software List WWW Page
http://stu.beloit.edu/~trentmd/
Mike Trent of Beloit College has a nifty home page that has a plethora of
listed free Mac software. Hes also the author of CPU Reporter 1.0 which in
he says... "is a small, almost useless, application that identifies
the CPU your Macintosh is using. It is useful for people with PowerMac
Upgrade Cards (or similar accelerators) who find themselves switching
between processors frequently. The CPU number is displayed in a small
floating window bar. CPU Reporter remembers the position of the window
bar between sessions." For further information on Mike's CPU Reporter
his email address is: trentmd@stu.beloit.edu (Mike Trent). Thanks Mike for
a truly "groovy" web page for Mac users!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

within the treasure trove and it has to be one of the best multimedia
sources available. Not for "techies" only although somewhat technical in
its offerings. Anyone wishing to find out more about the many different
multimedia specifications, formats,applications and sources (including
available source code) is urged to visit here.

Internet GopherVR (Virtual Reality) for Macintosh
Gopher to: boombox.micro.umn.edu
follow the path /gopher/Macintosh-TurboGopher/TurboGopherVR
Or use these URLs:
GOPHER://boombox.micro.umn.edu/11/gopher/Macintosh-TurboGopher/TurboGopherVR
FTP://boombox.micro.umn.edu/pub/gopher/Macintosh-TurboGopher/TurboGopherVR/
Announcing GopherVR
-------------------
At GopherCON '94 we talked about using 3D scenes as a user
interface metaphor for navigating the Internet and visualizing
relationships and clustering of documents. Early (alpha test)
releases of Macintosh and Unix Gopher clients that display 3D
scenes are now available via gopher and anonymous ftp from
boombox.micro.umn.edu.
Why a 3D user interface to Gopher?
----------------------------------
Gopher has an explicit organization and structure which is
external to the content of the documents, so it is straightforward
to map a 3D virtual world interface onto the existing gopher
servers. Since the Gopher+ protocol also has provisions for open
ended extensions and meta-information that resides external to the
content of documents, it is also easy for servers to give 3D-savvy
clients the 3D spatial coordinates and orientation of objects in a
gopher directory. This means that we can both synthesize 3D scenes
from existing non-3D-savvy Gopher servers, and take advanatge of
new 3D-savvy servers without reworking the contents of the
documents published in Gopher.
Virtual world interfaces give us a powerful data visualization
tool. GopherVR makes it possible to display clustering of documents
which is not feasible on either a menu or a flat page. Combining
GopherVR with servers that catagorize and cluster collections of
documents will make it possible to visualize complex retationships
within collections. To be effective, moving about the 3D scene must
be fast and fluid, and GopherVR has been optimized for quick
navigationn within the scene without hardware Z-buffer.
What comes after this release?
------------------------------
With later versions of this software you will be able to define
3D icons for objects in Gopherspace, and server administrators
will be able to specify placement of objects in 3D scenes.
In addition, there will be more user navigation features for
browsing within the 3D scenes.
Macintosh
---------
TurboGopherVR is an Internet Gopher client that combines a point
and click browser interface to the Internet with a 3D virtual-world
interface. Essentially, this is a superset of the current release
version of TurboGopher (version 2.0) with 3D extensions.
TurboGopherVR 2.1a3 requires a PowerPC Macintosh running
System 7 or better. System 7.5.1 is recommended since this
version of the system software includes a much improved
floating point math library. A version for 68K Macs is also
under construction but is not yet available.

discuss telecommunication (and related issues) that are specific to the
Macintosh.
This list is posted periodically (about once a month) to the Usenet
groups comp.sys.mac.comm, news.answers, and comp.answers. Latest versions
of the FAQ can be retrieved via anonymous FTP from the following sites:
