Send a message to learners@freebsd.org or kevin_eliuk@sunshine.net to obtain access to the repository using cvsup and to get put on the "learners" mailing list. The CVS repository for "learn" is mirrored on an anonymous ftp site at andrsn.stanford.edu in the /pub/learncvs directory; it's being updated twice daily. You can get the entire contents of this directory with the command "get learncvs.tar.gz". If you want sources only, you can get them with cvsup using *default host=cvsup.de.freebsd.org *default release=cvs learn-all in your supfile (Joerg Wunsch's mirror). "learn" is a program developed by Brian Kernighan and Mike Lesk at Bell Labs years ago to teach, through interaction with the system itself, unix to beginners. The original source code has been somewhat modified by Kevin Eliuk and Joerg Wunsch to run on FreeBSD, but needs further updating and additional lessons to make it suitable for inclusion in FreeBSD. So this is a development project--not yet ready to use. Annelise Anderson andrsn@andrsn.stanford.edu
