Hi! Sean,

In a message to Roy Witt you wrote:

Originating from 2:230/150?  Yep, I get the same error(s) here all the
time.  I just 'live with it', as I think the problem stems from the FE
executable (plain DOS) not being able to buffer the entire text during a
POST operation.

I often toy with the idea of unlinking the echo but, then, lethargy kicks in.

Cheers,
Paul.
