   Seems strange... I've been out of the loop for almost 2 months.  Life

   Even before Y2K, BW's author had disappeared... primarily due to health   
   issues, as I understand it.  Hasn't stopped us from using it with   
   success though.  He wasn't around for making Y2K updates, but the worst   
   glitch was addressed by a nice little fix by Dale Shipp, and things are   
   still generally working well...   
      
   As for that recent source for zmodem transfers, that may have been my   
   hubby's TelNetPort?  As I am still using DOS pretty exclusively, he's   
   worked on various fixes to make it still be possible.  I told you before   
   that he's a good programmer...

   ... I smell smoke.  I think my brain's about to go.
