=======================================
SOFTWARE LIBRARY AREA
=======================================
Welcome to the Microsoft Software Library (MSL) Directory. You will
find the following subdirectories for your use.
MSLFILES: Microsoft Software library (MSL) files are a subset of the
Microsoft Knowledge Base. The MSL contains over 2900 files
comprised of various drivers, appnotes, sample code,
patches, large documents, and other information.
Please read the Index.txt file in this area for the complete listing
of all Software Library files.
The Index.txt file has the following format:
Modifyddate softlib# filename description
An example entry would be:
May 14, 1999 S40055 O97dtfix.exe Microsoft Outlook 97 Date Fix
The files are located in the MSLFILES directory (one directory below).
Please do not do a 'DIR' in that directory as it contains a great
number of files, and it will take several minutes to display. The
INDEX.TXT file mentioned above lists all of the files, and it is
kept in synch with the contents of the MSLFILES directory.
The MSL files are either text files, zipped files, or self-extracting
files and can *only* be obtained by their Filename and not by their
Snumber. All Macintosh files are converted to BinHex format (.HQX)
================================================
To toggle change directory (cd) messaging on and off
enter the following:
ftp> quote site ckm
To toggle the directory display style from DOS (dir)
to UNIX (ls -l) enter the following:
ftp> quote site dirstyle
