I'm in the process of catching up on a backlog of mail. I thought people
might be interested in this. I know that there are equivalent services for
some of the other products, particular Mathematica and Reduce. If anybody
has detailed information, please post it to msug. :-)

The New Maple/Prescience Info Server
------------------------------------
Now available by anonymous ftp from ftp.maplesoft.on.ca :
The Maple Info Server is an ftp site containing
the Maple Share Library, Maple demos, general information
about Maple, and Maple support information.
Some of the things you can find in the Maple Info Server:
- -Maple V Release 2 for DOS and Windows demo
- -Sample Engineering Worksheets
- -Answers to common support questions
- -Maple availability lists
- -list of Maple books and manuals
and much more! Information is updated regularly.
If you have any questions about the Maple Info Server,
please contact Waterloo Maple Software Technical Support
at support@maplesoft.on.ca .
To contact the Info Server:
Use ftp at your site to contact ftp.maplesoft.on.ca.
Once the connection is established, enter your user name
as anonymous, and use your internet mail address as the password.
After you have successfully logged onto the remote computer, you can use
the commands ls and cd to list and change directories, respectively. The
'get filename' command of ftp causes the specified file to be copied to
your computer. The quit command closes the remote connection and
concludes the ftp session.
Note: to transfer binary files from the Share Library, make sure
that you set the file type to binary (with the "binary" command).
