st: itsp package

["Nelson, Carl" <chnelson@illinois.edu>]

I encountered the following behavior when trying to install the itsp package described in "An Introduction to Stata Programming"
. net from http://www.stata-press.com/data/itsp/

PACKAGES you could -net describe-:
    itsp-data         Datasets used in An Introduction to Stata Programming
    itsp-do           Do-files used in An Introduction to Stata Programming
    itsp-ado          User-written commands used in An Introduction to Stat
> a Programming
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

. net install itsp
package file too long
could not load itsp.pkg from http://www.stata-press.com/data/itsp/
r(640);

. net get itsp
package file too long
could not load itsp.pkg from http://www.stata-press.com/data/itsp/
r(640);

I searched the archive and was surprised to find no hits on this question. Thus I am writing to ask for advice to fix or work around r(640).

Thanks.
