# Obtaining the Describe Program

The current version of describe is %%VERSION_LONG%%.

If you don't have describe yet, or if yours is out-of-date, you can obtain a current copy from ftp://ftp.gno.org/pub/apple2/gs.specific/gno/doc.utils/describe%%VERSION_SHORT%%.shk This archive actually consists of three different programs:

- describe, the program which prints out the requested describe entry;
- descc, which compiles the describe database input "source" file into a binary database; and
- descu, which can be used for batch updates to the describe database "source" file.
