There was a red 4 CD set, I want to say it was ImageMagick but that's the graphics program. It was a 4 cd set of at least one Linux distro and a boat load of open source stuff. It predated redhat so it was huge back in the day, way better to buy that than spend a bizillion days on ftp over a modem. H.J. Lu's stuff was on it. Does anyone know where he is? I can go look if that helps. On Thu, Jul 16, 2020 at 06:59:14PM -0700, Larry McVoy wrote: > I have to go look but I think I might have this on CD.
