Volume 6A: Motif Programming Manual

1.7 Obtaining the Example Programs

The example programs in this book are available electronically in a number of ways: by FTP, FTPMAIL, BITFTP,

and UUCP. The cheapest, fastest, and easiest ways are listed first. If you read from the top down, the first one that

works for you is probably the best. Use FTP if you are directly on the Internet. Use FTPMAIL if you are not on the

Internet but can send and receive electronic mail to internet sites (this includes CompuServe users). Use BITFTP if

you send electronic mail via BITNET. Use UUCP if none of the above works.

Versions of the example programs for both Motif 1.2 and Motif 1.1 are available electronically. If you want the Motif

1.2 version, use the filename examples12.tar.Z, as shown in the sample sessions below. The filename for the Motif 1.1

version is examples11.tar.Z.

1.7.1 FTP

To use FTP, you need a machine with direct access to the Internet. A sample session is shown, with what you should

type in boldface.
