-rw-r--r--   1 glen     admin      35098 Dec 20 10:50 tetris286

Each of these files are disk images, so you can simply
dd to the floppy disk, then run custom against the floppy.  

Each of the seperate programs are included
on the Public Domain Supplement, so those are really all you need, but
I had these seperate ones too, so I included them.  Each of these sets
include rich custom scripts that do all the configuration and setup
where necessary, and get everything running (just like SCO! :-)  I hope
you enjoy them, and am more than willing to support them either for
SCO or whoever you decide to distribute them to.  They're all public-
domain freeware stuff that I compiled myself, so there shouldn't be
any legal/ethical problems, and I'd even be happy to see them on the 
FTP site, if you wanted to go that far.  I think they're a great add-
on to Xenix, especially Xenix OS without the DS.

Enjoy the PDS disks! :-)
