 BC> Way back when, I had one set up for no compression on the ZIP files

 BC> Preferences
 BC> Packet Preference Override
 BC> File and String Preferences
 BC> Compress Reply Cmd   C:\BW\PKZIP.EXE -e0 {at}F {at}I

Isn't it fun  to find these neat little things?  I have been 
running BW for at least 8 years now and I'm finding more and 
more goodies!

I use OMX as a work-around.  It translates BW  JAM  I never needed 
the FIX with my setup.

That big, huh?  I think I first started using BW with 1 (maybe 2) 
32MEG RLLs.  I them moved up to an 80Meg IDE!
