   Hi! Holger,   
      
   On Sat, 29 Aug 15, you wrote to me:   
      
    HG> Good afternoon Paul,   
      
   Thank you.  It's another gorgeous day in the sunshine state.  Very much like a   
   cool summer's day even though we're just near the end of winter.   
      
   Good morning to you, Holger.  :)  (I'm taking a punt on the travel time over   
   your copper wire.)   
      
    HG> Yes, it seems to be quite versatile but I don't know if it existed   
    HG> when I needed a point program for my office machine with WFWG 3.11    
    HG> system.   
      
   I just had a quick squiz at a .BMP I snapped of my old WFWG 3.11 desktop...   
   (Actually the desktop was a project by some IBM fellers and was based on the   
   OS/2 Warp 3.x *live* desktop manager ['live' long before Win9x came along with   
   its live desktop].)  Anyway... I was using a terminal program called   
   Microlink.  It was a beaut little proggie that I originally started using on   
   our first computer, a '286/12MHz job running Win3.1.  I was still doing   
   BlueWave 2.02 as well in those days, last century.   
      
   I can't recall when I started using SemPoint, though the archive in my   
   filebase is dated October 2002 which might be a clue as to when I downloaded   
   it.  I've been using it & other sysop readers, and NNTP, since then.  As you   
   can see herewith, it's still doing sterling service.  It's a 16-bit Windows   
   application and would have run nicely in WFWG, I'm sure.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
