 WH> There should be a release for both of them very shortly. The DOS one
 WH> will be a bug-fix release. The Windows one will be a minor release with
 WH> a number of enhancements.
  Great to hear it.  TM/Win is a good program, it's just a little rough
around the edges.  Nothing bad for first release software, I just wouldn't
want it to stagnate. 
 
 BS>Anything at all about an OS/2 version (please)?
 WH> Looking at the schedule we have for 1996, don't think we can have a
 WH> OS/2 version.
   Is there a particular reason?  I believe IBM is (or already
has) coming out with a set of APIs which make porting Win apps to OS/2 much
easier.  Besides which, OS/2 is better then Windows.  :) Personally, I would
be willing to pay full price (ie, new registration) for a good port of
Telemate to OS/2.  I think you'd find a lot of other OS/2 users would too.
  Right now the only decent comm program appears to be ZOC.  With only one
program for real competition, I think you could get a market.  I would like 
o
think OS/2 users would be more likely to register good software as well.  I
realize that you have other things to consider, and only a very limited 
mount
of time to work on the project, but can I at least ask you to reconsider?
 
 BS>  RIP support?
 BS>  IEMSI (auto-logon) support?
 WH> Sorry, both won't be in the next release.
  I'll live.  :)  I'd rather have an OS/2 port anyway (another not-so-subtle
hint).  Do you (or any other reader) know of where I can get the specs for
IEMSI?  I am confident that if I can get the protocol definition, I can write
an IEMSI script for Telemate.  But I can't seem to find any information on 
he
protocol...
