   an os/2 port of fxuucico? i'm not sure... maybe a native version but i'm not   
   sure on that, either... i used to run waffle bbs as a door under my RA and i   
   had fxuucico on the back side pulling email and news but i don't recall if   
   that was on the DOS side of my os/2 or not... when i went to GIGO, i used   
   whatever it had and then later was able to use the GIGOTCP addon package... i   
   was previously doing everything over POTS and was then able to get a better   
   connection to the 'net... unfortunately i don't have that stuff any more as   
   i've had to update the hard drives a time or two and that resulted in only the   
   important stuff being moved over before the old drives died...   
      
   at this site   
      
     http://www.rxn.com/services/faq/uucp/   
      
   a CTRL-F search for fxuucico in my browser gives only two results... the DOS   
   version and the documentation... apparently there's only the DOS version and i   
   know that it works fine on the DOS side of os/2...
