After more research about BINKSHIM, all it does is allow WC folks to use 
BINKLEY as their mailer rather than buy Platnum Xpress from Santronics. Seems 
the way the newer WC stuff is coded it can not easily be adapted/grafted into 
other systems, this especially includes the 32 bit doors. However, if there 
was a decompiler for the WC code, or a translator that could convert the 
calls to MEX, they would have potential.
