GNU Miscfiles

This is a web page about the GNU Miscfiles package, which is a collection of files not of crucial importance for system administration or operation, but which have come to be common on various systems over the years. It includes data files for country codes, airport codes, currency information, and so on.

Downloading Miscfiles

Miscfiles can be found on http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/miscfiles/ [via http] and ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/miscfiles/ [via FTP]. It can also be found on one of our FTP mirrors; please use a mirror if possible.

For development sources and other information, please see the miscfiles project page at savannah.gnu.org.

Miscfiles has one mailing list: <bug-miscfiles@gnu.org>.
