- There is a flat text-file copy of the Veronica database (just the
- directory menu entries, NOT the filename entries) in the FTP directory at
- Washington & Lee (approx. 2Mb). It is intended to be used interactively
- via telnet. After selecting the menu entry for the local version of
- Veronica the text-file is displayed (with line numbers) and may be
- searched. After quitting from the file, an option is given to select a
- line number. The Gopher client will then connect to the Gopher directory
- that corresponds to that line in the text file.
- Probably doesn't make much sense without looking at:
