-
- This information system is a joint project of the ANU Library and the
- Computer Services Centre. It is an prototype installation, and therefore
- subject to rapid change.
-
- It is based on 'Gopher' software developed in the public domain by the
- University of Minnesota and now used by over 70 institutions to deliver
- their electronic information services. The top level of this server runs
- on info.anu.edu.au in the Library but it links to many hundreds of other
- servers across the network.
-
- This server can be accessed via client software on Macintosh, PC,
- X-Windows and Unix machines.
-
- A cut down version of the Unix client can be accessed via telnet to
- info.anu.edu.au and login to 'info'. No password is needed for this
- service. For help with available commands, type a question mark (?). On
- some terminals, you may need to use the CTRL-N and CTRL-P keys to move
- the cursor, instead of the arrow keys.
-
- The hierarchy of menus you see provides access to information and
- network services at ANU, Elsewhere in Australia and Overseas.
-
- The services offered include
