Mike has now uploaded the latest version of the Hawkwind discography and
Codex to csgrad.cs.vt.edu, where it may be obtained via anonymous ftp.

To do so, ftp to csgrad.cs.vt.edu (128.173.41.41) and enter "anonymous"
when prompted for your "Name", and enter your e-mail address when asked
for your "Password:".  Then, go to the /pub/boc-l directory to get to the
area where the codex and discography files are.  With most ftp programs,
you can do this using "cd /pub/boc-l".

The Codex is in the file "hw_codex" and the discography in "hw_discography".
Most ftp software uses the "get" command to download files, e.g. to get a
copy of the discography you'd use "get hw_discography". These are plain
ASCII files, so set your transfer mode to ASCII before fetching them.

These files can also be accessed via WWW browsers.  The relevant URLs are:

        ftp://csgrad.cs.vt.edu/pub/boc-l/hw_codex
        ftp://csgrad.cs.vt.edu/pub/boc-l/hw_discography

Cheers,

Paul.
