What is their fidonet address?  I looked them up in the nodelist
without success, then I hunted around for my old reference, and
that node no longer exists either.  I finally got hold of MASM
and was able to test out whether WASM was MASM compatible or not.
It's not, despite being advertised as such.  I have documented
that (with the function spawn.asm found in MSQ320.ZIP, which
assembles fine with MASM 5.1 but doesn't stand a prayer with
WASM in Watcom C++ 10.0b), and was ready to send it to them when
I found I could no longer find them!  

No, I don't have internet access.

BFN.  Paul.
