Welcome to the CMU Artificial Intelligence Repository.
The AI Repository was established by Mark Kantrowitz in 1993 to
collect free software and materials of general interest to AI
researchers, educators, students, and practitioners.
If this is the first time you have used the Repository, please read
this file and the file named readme.txt. The file readme.txt contains
important information concerning the repository and conditions on use
of the repository. By retrieving files from the repository, you
signify your agreement to these conditions.
This directory contains six annotation files and several directories:
0.all Concatenation of the repository's 0.doc files
0.ask Abbreviated version of 0.all
0.doc Top-level documentation (this file)
readme.txt Read this file before using the AI Repository
file_ext.txt File extensions in use in the repository
ls-Rla.gz Results of running ls -Rla on the repository
copying/ GNU GPL and other copyright notices
doc/ Help with ftp, bitftp, ftpmail, etc.
util/ Compression and archiving software
html/ Mosaic-related documents, FAQ files, etc.

The remaining directories are the tops of topical directory trees. These
are (typically) structured as follows:
a/
0.doc documentation file for topic a
aa/

0.iso ISO-9660 file name correspondence table
0.lst summary listing file for package aaa
aaa.lzv verbose listing of aaa.zip
aaa.zip Info-zipped archive

...
There are some definite flaws with the current hierarchy, principally
stemming from limitations in the ISO-9660 file system and differences
between CD-ROM and FTP archive structuring priorities. We expect to
rearrange things in the future, so let us know your preferences...
