    Hi John,
    No problem.  FIDO likes to eat messages every now and then. :-)

    I don't recall your specific complaint, but I assume that it 
has to do with Win95.  The zmodem in TMW seems to need a little 
polishing, which does sometimes produce low transfer rates, but 
most of the xfers I tested worked okay.  OTOH, TMdos works as well 
in Win95 as it ever has, including straight DOS.  One thing you 
have to be careful with Win95 is the various comm port and modem 
settings screens.  Win95 insists that all things are set identical 
or it can have an adverse affect on communications.
... Save laboratory animals. Use lawyers and politicians.
