hehehe. I've been running OS/2 since version 2.0 was released and I have to
say the learning curve is rather steep. Getting things to work properly is
a challenge too. :-)

I run Binkley/Max/Squish here. I use pppdial and FiFTP to pick up mail from
George Peace. If there is anything I can help with please let me know. 

For starters here are my .Cmd and .Rsp files for pppdial... I connected the
line for ppp.exe with ... ... but the rest of the line wrap I let go. If
you care to contact me via email I am ratledge{at}jps.net. Oh, these are for
an old ISP but they did work when I used them. :-)
