Look what happened when I tried to get it:

--- snip ---
samar:~$ ftp netlib.bell-labs.com.
Connected to netlib.bell-labs.com.
20 Plan 9 FTP server ready
Name (netlib.bell-labs.com.:kp): anonymous
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
Login failed.
No control connection for command: No such file or directory
ftp> quit
samar:~$ 
--- snip ---

This happened many times, yesterday and today. I'm
trying to ftp from sas.sas.soft.net.

What's wrong?

Yes, the awk is bwk's latest. Has a number of minor but useful
gawk extensions in it, many of which I motivated bwk to include. :-)

At the risk of seeming retentive in the bottom department, the URL is
ftp://netlib.bell-labs.com/netlib/research/sam.shar.Z

Looks like there's also a fairly new awk bundle there too.

Bobf has kindly packaged up a fresh distribution. It's at the
usual place, ftp://netlib.bell-labs.com/research/dist/sam.shar.Z
(or something close, that's from memory).

I'm running it now.
