FOught with it for awhile, but since i don't run any flavor of ansi.sys I
got too many garbage characters with it. Using it with synthesized speech
and getting useful information was pretty useless so I discarded it rather
quickly. USing Binkley though. Looking more toward  command line solution
if anybody's created such a thing ever .

I had the lookup door on my bbs for users to utilize anyway so I just used
it mostly when I wanted to just look up an address and see who it belonged
to .

Thanks,
