A DOS text version is ZIPed up in netgd?_?.zip, mainly for sysops.  It has
cr/lf's at the end of each line instead of just lf's, so other DOS users
may want to grab it.  Note that if you transfer ASCII files in ASCII instead
of binary mode from our system directly to a DOS telenet/ftp client, it
should convert lf to cr/lf for you automagically.

For AmigaGuide, TeX DVI, TeXinfo, GNU Info, WWW/HTML, Windows .HLP, 
PostScript, Mac, GeoWorks Write, etc., versions, look in the
Other_versions directory.   This directory also contains another ASCII text
version, based on the TeXinfo implementation; this is the EFF's (Extended)
Guide to the Internet, and includes several appendices.

The Cyberpoet's Guide to Virtual Culture, which is in the
/pub/Net_info/Guidebooks/Cyberpoets_Guide/ directory, as cyberpoet.gvc,
will probably be of interest to you as well. It presents a sort of "Lesson
Two" for the beginner, and should be explored after the EFF Guide.

Answers) file.
