Hey Folks! 1)    Who has _any_ version of source-code to a program that will
ZIP files as well as unzip them?  Does anybody have working binaries for an
OSK-ZIP program ("compatible" with MeSsy-DOS' PKZip programs)? I've accepted
the offer of a loan on an XT (which I don't want) so I can create ZIPfiles of
straight-ASCII texts for an organization/BBS which absolutely refuses *.LZH
uploads.  I'd MUCH rather do it on my MM/1.
    (Actually, I'd rather stick with LHA/*.lzh, but the folks I'm working with
insist on being "compatible" and "mainstream". Arrgh!) - 2)    Who has source
code (or OSK binaries!) for a QWK-mail-reader? (especially one with TAGLINES!)
- 3)    When are we going to have a publicly released Usenet newsreader and
uucp* set of programs for OSK? - 4)    Do wo have available the routines that
would allow an OSK machine to
        a) use MNP, V.32, V.42 error correction and
        b) auto-fallback for calling or answering to a modem with a
                lower baud-rate? - 5)    Do we have a program that will "type"
a textfile at 10cps or so into a messagebase that otherwise barfs at full-speed
ASCII uploads?
      (I had a patience-exercising-experience trying to ASCII-upload this
message into the Atlanta Computer Society BBS {404/636-2991} MM/1_Tech-Echo
area. My second attempt at 300 baud worked.) - 6)    Who has the PCFile Manager
working on an MM/1, and HOW does one get it working? -
    This inquiring mind wants to know! -
                                        (Is my impatience showing?) - Clyde C.
