# -IX- Where can I find the FAQ and who do I contact for more information about it?

    From: FAQ General information

    	I am going to attempt to keep a copy of this file up to date on
    <URL:ftp://ftp.aud.alcatel.com/tcl/docs/tcl-faq.part0[1-5].gz.  There
    are mirrors of the user contribution archive site maintained elsewhere - for
    instance, it appears that cs.huji.il, ftp.denet.dk, ftp.luth.se,
    hplyot.obspm.fr, rs3.hrz.th-darmstadt.de, sunsite.unc.edu,
    swdsrv.edvz.univie.ac.at all have some portion of the user contrib archives
    available.  Also, I will be posting it on a regular basis to at least
    comp.lang.tcl, news.answers, and comp.answers.

    	Many FAQs, including this one, are available on the archive
    site <URL:ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news/answers/.  The subdirectory and
    name under which a FAQ is archived appears in the Archive-name line at
    the top of the article.  For example, this part of the comp.lang.tcl
    FAQ is archived as
    <URL:ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news/answers/tcl-faq/part2.Z.
    There is a Northern European archive for the FAQ at
    <URL:ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/usenet/news.answers/comp.lang.tcl/
    as well as a French location for the FAQ at
    <URL:ftp://hplyot.obspm.fr/tcl/tcl.FAQ.gz.

    	There is also a mail server from which you can obtain a copy of
    the FAQ.  Send an email message to <URL:mailto:mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu> or
    <URL:mailto:archive-server@nic.switch.ch>  with the word help in the body of
    the message to find out how to use it.

    	Also, this FAQ is available from within gopher (by looking at
    any one of the gopher holes presenting news.answers or FAQ lists), from
    WAIS servers (such as the comp.lang.tcl.src), from a number of sites
    which have available via ftp archives of news.answers and comp.answers
    (use archie to locate one of these sites available around the world),
    and probably other resources as well.

    	Other news.answers/FAQ archives (which carry some or all of the FAQs
    in the rtfm.mit.edu archive), sorted by country, are:

    	One Uniform Resource Locator (URL) id for the comp.lang.tcl FAQ
    formerly was
    <URL:http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/tcl-faq/top.html
    and is now at <URL:http://www.smartpages.com/bngfaqs/comp/lang/tcl/top.html.
    The user can use a WorldWideWeb client to access the FAQ from this point.
    Another is <URL:http://www.lib.ox.ac.uk/internet/news/faq/comp.lang.tcl.html.
    Yet another is <URL:http://www.cs.ruu.nl/wais/html/na-bng/comp.lang.tcl.html.

    	A WWW URL for the FAQ, where the FAQ is treated simply as one
    long scrollable document (suitable for doing a search against, for
    instance) is <URL:http://realsoon.wpi.edu80/faqs/tcl.FAQ
    though there are reports that this server is not responding to HTTP
    requests.

    	A archive of the past 8 months of the newsgroup is available from
    <URL:ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/archive/usenet/comp.lang.tcl/.
    A good place to start looking through this archive is
    <URL:ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/usenet-archives/comp.lang.tcl/+Index
    which contains a list of all the filenames and subject lines of each of the
    articles.  Another archive available is <URL:ftp://olive.kek.jp/pub/tcl/News/
    where the archive is organized by collecting each month's worth of postings
    into it's own file.  This archive has been kept since January 1993.

    	A new source of the FAQ!  Thanks to
    Taguchi Takeshi <URL:mailto:taguchi@fox.aic.co.jp> we now have the
    comp.lang.tcl FAQ translated into Japanese.  It may even be readable
    using the Japanized version of Tk.  You may find it at
    <URL:ftp://ftp.aud.alcatel.com/tcl/docs/tcl-faq-j5.1.tar.gz as well as
    <URL:http://tanaka-www.cs.titech.ac.jp/%7Ekumano/Tcl-FAQs/tcl-faq.html.
    As new versions are translated, the version number will change
    (obviously).

    	Let me know when you find the FAQ in new and unusual locations
    so I can update this resource guide!
