Exactly.  I think Papyrus works in Med though.  Any machine that can
do Low can do Med, and for word processing 400 line resolutions really
do look ALOT better.He probably wanted to see the pretty colors.  If
he's desparate, tell 'em to use something like BIGSCREEN to scroll
around a virtual screen.

 DB> A hypertext bbs? Like some of the Mac bbs packages? Hmmm...now that
 DB> sounds interesting.

I'm not sure what what Mac packages.  Mac BBSs seem to be rare.I got the
idea from Metronet - my Internet provider.  When you first sign on, you
don't have an account yet, so what yo get is Lynx - with information about
the services, prices, TCP/IP software to download, local users' Web pages,
and a form to fill out (Lynx does support forms).

When I saw it, I thought ... hmm ... what if the links pointed to files and
message bases.  I know Lynx can retrieve local files - and it makes a
better menu than a menu.  If it could run external applications, then it
would be perfect (I know it can send email).
