ANNOUNCE: Scarecrow's ASCII Art Gopher

ANNOUNCE: Scarecrow's ASCII Art Gopher

rec.arts.ascii · 1 message · 31 Oct 1994
   The Scarecrow ASCII art FTP site has come to Gopher.  At the present, 
it is simply accessing the FTP folder.  As time goes on I will give it an 
opening message, and more Gopher-like file and folder names, and links to 
other ASCII art Gopher sites.

   If you have hesitated to use the FTP site because you don't like the 
commands, and don't have a Web browser at your site, the Scarecrow's 
ASCII Art Gopher is just what you've been looking for.

   To access Scarecrow's ASCII Art Gopher, at the propmt, just type:

gopher gopher.wwa.com

   You will go to the WorldWide Access gopher.  Menu item number 3 is my 
ASCII art site, so just go down to 3 with your down arrow, and then enter 
it by pressing the right arrow.  Rememeber, you can always go back out 
the way you came in by pressing the left arrow.

   Note: Some files are compressed and encoded.  These are usually large 
files of over 300 K or so.  These files need to be downloaded, 
decoded and decompressed.  Some other files like animations and color 
images, contain control codes.  These need to be downloaded and "cat'd" 
or "type'd" to be viewed on most systems.

   Enjoy!
