Thanks to work by David Carter the document is also available as plain
text and some other formats here:

  http://www.sigfs.org/its-reference/

Incidentally, I was the one who asked a librarian at the AI lab to scan
the document in the first place. I'm sorry I don't remember the name of
the person who did this. Thanks, anyway.

Björn Victor has some additional material on getting ITS to run on the
KLH-10 emulator here:

  http://victor.se/bjorn/its/

and some additional material on UP, an ITS machine!

  http://up.update.uu.se/

Although the web server doesn't seem to answer just this moment. Björn
has written a web server in MacLisp.

Paul Svensson has also written a web server, but in MIDAS, IIRC. His
machine used to be available as

  http://sv.svensson.org/

but it doesn't answer any longer, although it does reply to ping.
