If you cannot handle gzip compression, you can have our FTP server convert them to "compress" (.Z) or uncompressed format. Changing the suffix of the filename you ask for will change its format on the fly. Change ".gz" to ".Z" to get compress format. Remove the ".gz" suffix entirely to get the file uncompressed. You may examine the file xc/bug-report to see what public patches have been applied to your X11R6 source tree. Note that all of the xc-?.tar.* files have changed since the initial release versions. You cannot mix older versions of these tar files with the current versions. After transferring the files, please read the Release Notes for information on how to extract and build the software. The core distribution is broken up into tar files as follows: xc-1.tar contains everything in xc/ that isn't in the other tar files xc-2.tar contains xc/fonts, xc/test, xc/util, xc/workInProgress xc-3.tar contains xc/doc/specs, xc/doc/hardcopy The contrib software is broken up into the following files under contrib/ in the tar files: contrib-1.tar LABEL, Manifest.*, Imakefile, programs A-J contrib-2.tar programs K-Z, Motif-based software contrib-3.tar Andrew contrib-4.tar other lib, doc, examples, extensions, fonts, test, util See the file /GettingR6 for information on buying printed documentation, tapes, and CD-ROMs from the X Consortium.
