an os/2 port of fxuucico? i'm not sure... maybe a native version but i'm
not sure on that, either... i used to run waffle bbs as a door under my RA
and i had fxuucico on the back side pulling email and news but i don't
recall if that was on the DOS side of my os/2 or not... when i went to
GIGO, i used whatever it had and then later was able to use the GIGOTCP
addon package... i was previously doing everything over POTS and was then
able to get a better connection to the 'net... unfortunately i don't have
that stuff any more as i've had to update the hard drives a time or two and
that resulted in only the important stuff being moved over before the old
drives died...

  http://www.rxn.com/services/faq/uucp/

a CTRL-F search for fxuucico in my browser gives only two results... the
DOS version and the documentation... apparently there's only the DOS
version and i know that it works fine on the DOS side of os/2...
