    From the FAQ:
    
       CMU Common Lisp is free, and runs on Sparcs (Mach and SunOs),
       DecStation 3100 (Mach), IBM RT (Mach) and requires 16mb RAM, 25mb
       disk...  It is available by
       anonymous ftp from any CMU CS machine, such as
       lisp-rt1.slisp.cs.cmu.edu and lisp-rt2.slisp.cs.cmu.edu, in the
       directory /afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/clisp/release. Login with username
       "anonymous" and ·······@host" (your email address) as password. Due to
       security restrictions on anonymous ftps, it is important to "cd" to
       the source directory with a single command. Don't forget to put the
       ftp into binary mode before using "get" to obtain the
       compressed/tarred files. The binary releases are contained in files of
       the form
                    <version>-<machine>_<os>.tar.Z
       Other files in this directory of possible interest are
       15b-sun4-source.tar.Z, which contains all the ".lisp" source files
       used to build version 15b for Sparc machines, and
       10-16-91-cmucl-master.tar.Z which contains the project/clisp/master
       subtree, with RCS source (,v) files for all of CMU CL. Bug reports
       should be sent to ··········@cs.cmu.edu.

The above description may be a bit confusing.  You first make an FTP
connection to some CMU machine, perhaps one of those listed above.  A
better choice is "ftp.cs.cmu.edu", a machine just set up to handle
FTP traffic in CMU Computer Science.  (Internet address 128.2.206.173)

THEN you have to "cd" to the AFS directories specified above.  Do this in
one atomic operation, since some of the superior directories on the path
are protected against outside access.  Then you should have no trouble
obtaining the files.  Use "dir" to see what is available.  The 15b sources
are now obsolete.
