Software for running cladistic randomization routines interactively with 
Hennig86 is available for retrieval by file transfer protocol.

To be able to use the software you must have your own registered copy of 
Hennig86 (Copyright J. S. Farris), it is not provided with my software.

TO RETRIEVE:
     ftp to "zoo.toronto.edu"
     at the login prompt type "anonymous"
     at the password prompt type your email address
    
     this will put you in the "/usr/ftp " directory.

     the files you want are located in "/usr/ftp/pub " and are called
        "random.doc" and "random.exe"
     you may read "random.doc" while logged on to our system, it includes
        instructions on transfer and on installation.
     the software is in "random.exe" which is a self-extracting zip file

     type "get /usr/ftp/pub/random.exe" to get the software (and likewise
        for random.doc).

PLEASE:    send me email to tell me you have retrieved it and I will keep
       your name in my distribution list to ensure you are kept abreast
       of new developments, bugs, etc.
