Hello Charles, I wish you a nice day!

        I think that I am doing this unwittingly. I made a
  shortcut to the BW.exe, then I palced it into a shorcutbar that
  sits on the top edge of my screen. I just clikc on it and
  whamho! there is BW.

        Prime exemple of this is the CBM BBS here in Montreal. Run
  by a pharmacist and always was free. He still does all he needs
  on a C=128. That Sysop helped quite a few of us get into binary
  world. I got in during 1985 with a C=64 and GEOS.
