I did not zip them all together. Tom (aka Cturley2) was the one who ZIPped
them and uploaded it to asimov :-)
I have made them available separately at ftp://eagle.cable.nu/a2redbook if
you want to check them. This is my home PC. It is on most of the time but
not guaranteed, and has a 128 kbit/sec uplink speed. Don't abuse it,
please -- if you want the whole lot then download the zip from asimov.
