There are a few different UUCP packages and NetNews systems available for
OSK among them are CNews and Rick Adam's news software that comes with his
UUCP package.

Check the UNIX forum for source to QWK-mail-readers, I don't know of any
binaries for OSK.

As for ZIP, we do have an Un-Zipper, but no-one has attempted porting the
UNIX Zipper as far as I know.  (Maybe I should look into ZIP for OSK!)

For your slow ASCII uploads, I think there is source for a program called
slowio that will do the trick, if not, it's pretty trivial to write one:

main()       
{
    char c;     
 
    while (c = getc(stdin)) != EOF) {
         putc(c,stdout);
    }
}

call it from the command line like:

slowio /tx

Hope this helps,

 - Mike -

PS there is RN for OSK too.
