A number of months ago, I was looking for an email client.  I deleted PMMail
because it did not support PGP.  (I finally went with Elm.  Anyone else have
any other PGP-supporting suggestions?)
Someone should tell the author of PMMail that the inclusion or exclusion of
PGP support is _the_ deciding factor for some potential customers.  We'll be
getting our Fidonet/Internet gateway back here "soon" or else I'd be asking
for an address to write him/her directly.  Anyone is welcome to forward this
message if they see fit however.)
I decided to go looking for 1.91, but found that although Hobbes has a
directory for PMMail utilities, the program itself is not present, at least
not in the main /os2 hierarchy.  (It's _possibly_ under "old" but the
directory I mentioned above is under /os2, not /old, so I would be surprised
at that.)

No need to clutter up your path statement with such things if you just add a
directory such as the above.  All one would need (providing such a single
directory already exists in your path statement) is to create the appropriate
command file.  There is no need to kill off the various sessions and reboot
in order to have your changes take effect.
After all, we all use OS/2, right? :)  Rebooting seems to be dos-think, imo.
