Official SCMOS Technology File for MAGIC

(Originally broadcast to MOSIS Liason Users)

Many integrated circuit designers use MAGIC, 
the popular  graphical  editor  that  was developed 
by the University of California, Berkeley.  

MOSIS recommends that you do not use the scmos.tech file that  is
distributed with this version of MAGIC since it is not frequently
updated.  Instead, users should obtain  the officially sanctioned
SCMOS  technology  file  that  is  called  "scmos_tech.uu" and is
available via anonymous FTP from "ftp.mosis.edu".  This file  has
been used extensively and is constantly updated.

To retrieve the file, login  to  "ftp.mosis.edu"  with   username
"anonymous"  and  supply  your net-address as the password.  Once
connected, change  directory   to   "pub/mosis/magic"   and  type
"get  scmos_tech.uu".  Place the file in an empty subdirectory of
its own before proceeding with the  following  sequence  of  com-
mands: 

(1) uudecode scmos_tech.uu
    --this will decode the file and result in a compressed 
	  scmos_tech.tar.Z file.  

(2) uncompress scmos_tech.tar.Z
    --this will uncompress the file and result in a 
	  scmos_tech.tar file.  

(3)	tar -fvlx scmos_tech.tar
	--this will extract the files.
