Hello.

I've made DJGPP packages of GNU miscfiles 1.2. These are available from
Simtel.NET & mirrors:

ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/misc12b.zip
ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/misc12s.zip

These are binary and source distributions, respectively.

What is GNU miscfiles? Here is an excerpt from the original announcement: 

"This distribution includes files not of crucial importance for system
administration or operation, but which have come to be common on
various systems over the years, including word lists, airport codes,
zipcodes and more.

This distribution does not include any programs.

In addition to many new files in this release, the na.phones database
has been entirely rebuilt.

The current list of files is:

connectives web2 web2a propernames airport ascii birthtoken
inter.phone na.phone operator abbrevs.talk abbrevs.gen cities.dat
postal.codes GNU-manifesto mailinglists languages latin1 currency
countries unicode jargon.html us-constitution us-declaration
rfc-index.txt std-index.txt fyi-index.txt tasks.info tasks.texi"

I hope this is useful. Bye,

--
