What a mess. It didn't look like that when I wrote it:
Target Hostname/Port Database Userid Password
Preselected Rank Syntax Encoding Timeout Record type
AUS NATLIB catalogue.nla.gov.au:7090 voyager
No 0 USMARC MARC-8 0 MARC-8
LIBRARY OF lx2.loc.gov:210 LCDB Yes
1 USMARC utf8 0 Bibliographic
CONGRESS
NEW YORKaleph.library.nyu.edu:9991 NYU01PUB No
USMARC utf8 0 Bibliographic
UNIVERSITY
OLIS library.ox.ac.uk:210 MAIN*BIBMAST No
2 USMARC MARC-8 0 Bibliographic
I put AUS NATLIB and OLIS in because I have some books published in
Australia or the UK.
