Has to do with migrating away from TBBS ...  I'm pondering WINServer/PX to
replace TBBS.  Since WINServer has much in the way of InterNET support
(dynamic HTML support as well as other features) I'm thinking that I'd move
then entire shebang into WinNTAS...

I'm not committed to The Big Switch, but just now WINServer seems to best
match my view of Where I Want To Be...

Other ideas??

I don't mind moving to a linux soloution, but the only one I've found that
even comes close to the design goals *I* have is LORA, and LORA doesn't
provide the seamless link between ANSI/ASCII/HTML as far as I can see...

I can't fool with LORA since it seems every time I ftp the demo files they
fail to install... 'course that may be my Caldera CND v1.0 setup too...

Firing up lynx now...   Thanks, Mike...
