ftp mirror/docs/snapshot warnings noted

[Lloyd Wood <L.Wood@surrey.ac.uk>]

the Surrey anonymous ftp service is down indefinitely (beyond my
control), but our mirror of the ns software can still be accessed via:

http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Personal/L.Wood/ns/

and Solaris NFS rocks (sort of). So, we're now mirroring the ns ftp
stuff only via http, as opposed to the ns http stuff, which isn't
mirrored anywhere.

Hope that's clear. Apologies for the inconvenience/confusion. 


Speaking of confusion, for all of you who think the ns documentation
was last updated 1 July, and I know I did
(http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-documentation.html) it seems to
actually be 16 August (html only, goodbye diagrams, postscript's still
1 July). Learn latex, build it myself from the snapshot doc directory,
I guess.


Warnings noted on compile (Solaris 2.5.1):

Just built the current tclcl snapshot of 30 Aug:

Tcl.cc: In method `void InstVarError::set(const char *)':
Tcl.cc:839: warning: unused parameter `const char * s'
Tcl.cc: In method `void TclObject::bind(const char *, double *)':

seem new and just a tad worrying;

Tcl2.cc:36: warning: `char rcsid[103]' defined but not used

is pretty old. And, speaking of old, in today's ns snapshot:
