4.0) What is XL Search?

XL Search is a new and growing search engine created and maintained by
mailto:kendrick@zippy.sonoma.edu (Bill Kendrick), designed to provide much-
improved access to the various PD/freeware/shareware Atari 8-bit software
archives available on the Internet.

XL Search is located at: http://zippy.sonoma.edu/kendrick/nbs/xlsearch/

You can also access XL Search via e-mail! Send mail to:
mailto:kendrick@zippy.sonoma.edu with the subject "xlsearch" for details.

http://shareware.com/ , c|net's FTP-site search engine, now includes
the Atari 8-bit files at UMich!

Unfortunately, being under the previously-existing "Atari" category,
the files are now pretty mixed in with the ST stuff.  I've talked to them
about fixing that.  No reponse yet (they're really slow that way)...

Anyway, so now you can use http://shareware.com/ to find Atari stuff..
just be careful what directory you pull it out of! :)

Remember, you can ALSO use MY MINI VERSION OF SHAREWARE.COM!....

XL Search, the Atari 8-bit FTP site search engine!
If anything, it's much less cluttered than Shareware.com! ;)
