Dictionary.

The GNU Info files, basically documentation for the GNU elemnts of the
system -- gcc, amd, cvs, diff, dc, gawk, info, send-pr, and so forth.  If
you have the space, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have them.

ftp.mcom.com is probably deprecated.  netscape.com is the proper domain
entry for them.
