Subject: Revised instructions to download ISO Prolog draft
Date: 10 Apr 92 14:32:32 GMT
Organization: Department of Computing, Imperial College, University of London, UK.

My instructions for downloading the draft Prolog standard have been
corrected by our ever-patient unix guru Lee McLoughlin and I hope they are
now correct. In some situations "anon" should read "anonymous", and 
regular expressions are NOT interpreted as I had imagined.
Also Lee has now uuencoded the Postscript source which brings it down
from 2MB to 640K.


Sorry for any problems caused.
