Mahaabhaarata and Raamaayana available

[yanom at ksuvx0.kyoto-su.ac.jp]

Dear colleagues,

I am pleased to tell you that my friend, Prof. Muneo Tokunaga
of Kyoto University, has decided to make publicly available 
the whole e-texts of the Mahaabhaarata and Raamaaya.na.
The texts are the result of three years of his painstaking
effort and proof reading of his students.
This would be remembered as one of the greatest achievements
of Sanskrit and Indological studies in the twentieth century.
Since Prof. Tokunaga does not use e-mail currently, I put the
texts at the ftp site of my university.  The address is:
ccftp.kyoto-su.ac.jp
The texts are located at the directories:
