I would gladly offer space on ftp.uni-kl.de for it, if you place it
in the general incoming directory and e-mail me when you have done so.
I am currently tight on time, so new uploads of rare gs goodies will
have to wait for two or three weeks, but I would make your new program
available immediately if you request me to do so, of course.

To upload stuff, send it via Zmodem protocol using your favorite
terminal program. When you have it on your private shell account, you
will have to transfer it to the ftp site of your choice.

Here is a quick tutorial for FTP, good if you don't have access to all
these graphics stuff...

1) Type ftp <hostname>
2) You will be prompted for your user name, type "anonymous"
3) Some sites will ask you for your e-mail address, type it
4) You can navigate now in the unix tree structure with the standard
   commands cd <directory> and cd .. (up one level). Use ls to list
   the current directory.
5) When you want to download something, type bin for binary, then
   get <filename>
6) When you want to upload something, move to the incoming directory,
   then type put <filename>
7) Advanced commands: mput/mget * to put/get all, hash for a "grapical"
   download meter and prompt to turn off confirmation prompts.
8) Type exit when you are done, Ctrl-D is o.k., too.
