Dear all

an addendum from Phil Evans - his aimless & pointless stuff is on our  
anonymous ftp site at

	ftp.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk

then login with user name "anonymous" or "ftp", then cd to /pub/pre.  
Some web browsers (especially more modern ones) will take you  
straight there if you use the URL ftp://ftp.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/pub/pre/

Note that he doesn't have a Windows build...
