Hi, I read in the handbook that if I ftp to the usr.bin directory in the source tree and then initiate the command get lex.tar that the entire source tree will end up on my machine as a tarball. Do I understand this correctly? Can someone explain this a little more to me. I looked at the ftp man page and it didn't say much about what is going on here. Thanks for all your help.
