1. How can I get Waffle by ftp ?
Anonymous ftp:
-------------
Waffle (DOS version) is available via anonymous ftp from
(the old) SimTel and its various mirror sites as follows:
oak.oakland.edu
SimTel/msdos/waffle/waf165.zip
wuarchive.wustl.edu
/mirrors/msdos/waffle/waf165.zip
There are other Coast/SimTel mirror sites. See the periodic postings
in comp.archives.msdos.announce and news.answers for more details.
In addition, ftp.halcyon.com has a large waffle-related FTP area:
ftp.halcyon.com
/pub/waffle/waffle/waf165.zip
halcyon mirrors (keeps a current copy of) the (old) simtel waffle
files, the simtel offline-mail files, and the tau-ceti fx
suite. it's your one-stop waffle ftp site. be sure to send
mail to `ralphs' thanking him for donating the resources, and
to `hpage' for being the ongoing archivist.
2. What if I'm not on the Internet ?
From the author's BBS:
---------------------
The Dark Side of the Moon BBS 1.408.245.SPAM (7726) (Tom Dell)
From (old) SimTel and mirrors via mail-based-archive-servers:
------------------------------------------------------------
A number of sites run archive-servers to give non-Internet folks
the ability to do the equivalent of ftp-by-mail.
If you do not have FTP access to (old) SimTel, files may be ordered by
mail from:
Internet-style: listserv@vm1.nodak.edu
listserv@vm.ecs.rpi.edu
UUCP-style: uunet!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
uunet!vm.ecs.rpi.edu!listserv
Send this command to the server to get its help file:
GET PDGET HELP
NOTE: remember that if you request items from an archive-server
via mail, that your traffic goes through every system between the
server and you, and adds such load on each system. Be courteous.
There are a number of periodic postings in news.answers that tell
how to get software via mail in far more detail than what is
provided here.
From other BBS sites:

Via mail:
questor.wimsey.bc.ca (Steve Pershing):
