An MS-DOS INTKEY package for angiosperm families (L. Watson and M.J. Dallwitz
1991, The families of angiosperms: automated descriptions, with interactive
identification and information retrieval. Aust. Syst. Bot., 4, 681-95) is
available by gopher or anonymous ftp from the following Internet hosts.

     Host                   Base directory
     --------------------   -----------------------
     muse.bio.cornell.edu   /pub/delta/angio
     spider.ento.csiro.au   /delta/angio

The distribution package consists of text files *.1st, self-expanding files
*.exe, and image files *.gif. The data files and information about
installation are in the subdirectory angio. angio at .exe contains the data and
various subsidiary files. Download.1st contains this information about
downloading the files, and angio.1st describes the procedure for installing
the programs on an MS-DOS computer. The rest of the files are not essential
for running INTKEY, and are in the subdirectory angio/extra. a at .exe, b at .exe,
... contain full descriptions in English, and are about 1MB in size. *.gif
contain images, and are about 50MB in size. The files must be transmitted in
binary mode, set by the ftp command `binary'. (Failure to do so will result
in the error message `HeaderC Error' when the .exe files are run.)

To install the package on an MS-DOS computer, place the .exe files in the
directory C:\ANGIO, and the .gif files in the directory C:\ANGIO\PICS. Then
follow the installation procedure described in angio.1st, but omit the COPY
commands.

If you do not already have the latest version of the interactive
identification and information retrieval program, INTKEY, you will need to
obtain the file delta1 at .exe from the subdirectory msdos. This file contains
INTKEY.EXE and its documentation.
