The MSDOS package contains only the platform-dependent parts. You find the rest (modules and documentation) in the file 'xindy-2.0b.tar.gz'. To unpack this file you need Windows ports of gzip and tar. I think you'll find them on the CTAN server, too. Just search for gzip and tar.exe. Please tell me if the MSDOS port works on Windows98 (it's not tested yet). CU Joerg ------- End of forwarded message ------- Hello, maybe the DOS-versions of gzip and tar will do it too. gzip can be found at http://bandersnatch.fnr.umass.edu/gap/compression.html There also exists a Windows3.1-Version of the Mac-Program Stuffit expander. Try an archie seek for sitex10.zip hope it helps Stefan
