Can you run Win32 program's on your fido system?

I didn't, but it is indeed visible:

Did it get processed in any way? Maybe you can send the file?


Btw: I think 'send' is corrent here. I used google, and found: "'Send' is the
present tense, 'sent' is the past tense.'" ;)
Now I will have to try and remember that. Will be difficult. ;)

Wilfred.
