This handout is for Fetch 2.1. Earlier versions are slightly different. Fetch was developed at Dartmouth College, and can be used free of charge by any educational or non-profit organization. Getting started. . . Start Fetch by double clicking on the Fetch icon.
Fetch opens with a connection dialog box with a host name and password already specified.
The first time you use Fetch, click on the cancel button in the beginning connection box. Then open the Customize window and choose Preferences. It will ask you for your Internet e-mail address. Fill this in. Many anonymous FTP sites request your e-mail address as a password.
