The Archie module finds files available via anonymous ftp
by making requests to an Archie server. The package
communicates with the Archie server via the Prospero
protocol, which is layered on the Asynchronous Reliable
Delivery Protocol, which is layered on UDP.
The usual entry point is Archie::archie_request, which
takes arguments similar to the Unix archie command-line
client, and returns an array of hash references which
point to the returned data.
The routine Archie::archie_cancel cancels the request on
the server; this stops the server from sending packets to
a canceled client process.
This release is $Revision: 1.5 $.
