According to the FAQ, section 4.4, this should work: http://www.simtel.net/simtel.net/gnu/djgpp/ If you want stuff by mail, there's an ftpmail server I've had some success with. Send mail containing "help" to . You can fetch files from any ftp server, uuencoded and optionally compressed, up to 10 at a time. A drawback is that it only allows one `chdir' per job, making it tedious to search for files if you don't know where they are. But that shouldn't be much of a problem here.
