   Hi Folks,     
      
   With the new 2019 year coming, there are an old 1990s things I decided to   
   resurrect -- Platinum Xpress!!     
      
   PX/WIN was updated and what this means so far at this point is;  PX/WIN was   
   compiled using the latest wcSDK headers  and a new setup utility (INNO) was   
   used with offers 32/64bit support. This means the new PX/WIN 7.0 setup/CD will   
   work on modern OSes, unlike the PX/WIN 2.0 Setup/CD which only worked on 32 bit   
    machines.   We never did have a PX/WIN 3.0 Setup/CD.  You first installed 2.0   
   via the CD and then upgraded to 3.0 using the BBS online product update patches   
    and zip files.   
      
   We are giving this new PX/WIN a version 7.0 build 454.6 to make it align with   
   Wildcat!.   If you are interested in refreshing your PX/WIN installation and   
   given it a whirl,  please contact me off list.      
      
   No deep testing has been done.  Nothing "Fido" related has been tested, i.e.   
   imports/exports, attachments, etc.   I am using, testing and playing with   
   PXTOOLS Sysop Editor now that I have PX/WIN v7.0 installed on my 64 bit Windows   
    7 home machine.   It all seems to work but I am only using PXTOOLS Sysop   
   Editor, testing email and sending/receiving LONG FILE NAME (LFN) attachments.     
     Overall, LFN vs SFN related stuff needs to be tested and reviewed since   
   LFN/SFN is really the only difference between the older WCSDK headers used for   
   PX/WIN 4.0 and the current WCSDK headers used for PX/WIN 7.0.   
      
   I should note that the following:   
      
   o Still has the old *.HLP (help) files.  I can't find the help source files to   
   recompile as *.CHM help files.  Maybe there is a  HLP file decompiler like   
   there is for CHM files.   
      
   o The same exact PX/WIN 2.0 CD installed fidonet related files were used for   
   installation, that means the old mail/file echo, backhone files were provided.    
    The installation will not overwrite any existing subfolder files if you   
   upgrade on top of your current PXW folder.  In fact, the following are the   
   files that are part of the new setup/installation:

   Some of the plans are:   
      
   o Making PX/WIN part of the AUP,   
   o Make sure the LFN/SFN is addressed where applicable,   
   o Enhancing the PXTOOLS Sysop Editor to better support RFC5322, Mime Mail,   
   o Extending the concepts of PX/WIN File/Mail Bone for a Wildcat! distributed   
   network. i.e. PX/NET.   
      
   Thanks for your long time support and have a great new year!
