the correct sequence is:
        ftp moon.cecer.army.mil
        anonymous
        yourname@
this logs you onto the grass ftp site. The source code itself would be
somewhere down the tree:
        cd grass
        get ls-lR.Z
        quit
The file ls-lR.Z contains an up-to-date directory listing of the site. I
find it handy to keep this file around. Good luck!
