The promise is that all Supplementary Material will be both ASCII and TIFF format (and that it will expand to other journals?). I can't seem to get my Word 5.0 to accomplish the TIFF conversion, but the README file on the gopher lists a number of pieces of software to do this, two of them available via anonymous FTP. This will really improve access to Suppl. Matl., and hopefully encourage its greater use for details which are critical to reproducibility, but of less than stellar interest otherwise. --
