 BC> In case anyone is interested in my roundabout BBS access...

Mine's almost as roundabout, just not going thru a library's server...

 BC> I use Procomm Plus v2.01 for DOS in VT-100 emulation to connect to the
 BC> local library computer server for their free internet connection,

 BC> If I want to see graphics, I have to download them. 
 BC> I can read the text on frames sites, just not see the formating. 
 BC> Forget JAVA script. 

That's familiar... I'm also using Lynx as a browser... :)

Are you doing your telnetting in Windows or in DOS?

 BC> I use telnet to access BBSNETS BBS and download/upload packets. 

I'm using telnet to access bbs's in various parts of the country, and
getting packets from most of them (as long as they have the offline mail
door), but I can only upload reply packets to ones that have the kermit
protocol, since I've not been able to use ZModem for uploads with DOS in
the telnet mode...  Which is why I'm curious about whether you are in
WIn or DOS, as it appears that Windows (which I have an aversion to) is
the only way to be able to do uploads in telnet.
