FM> OK, I grabbed it when you mentioned it but never installed it. I'll do

If you were using it, it would come up with a PQWK 2.7 in the PID control
line in your messages (like this message you sent!).

FM> [later] OK, done that - let's see how it goes. BTW, your README should

Yes, it should really.  Although all those "p" versions are
basically "undocumented files".

FM> remember, is it OS/2?

Yes, and OS/2 users are used to seeing the "p" for
"protected", so it's sort of a self-documenting filename.  BFN. 
Paul.

P.S. I use info-zip, not pkzip.
