   I've ported a few AppleTalk protocols to the PC in my spare time,
and written a PC version of BroadCast, the Macintosh network message
utility.  It's compatible with the Mac version (even has icons :-)),
and available for anonymous FTP from caisr2.caisr.cwru.edu
(129.22.24.22) in /pub/net and from b62624.student.cwru.edu
(129.22.244.160) in /ka9q/anon, as bdcst11.zip.

   It's a fairly simple version, only uses in text mode, doesn't run
as a TSR, speaks only Phase II, and hasn't been tested under OS/2 or
Windows, but hey, whaddya expect from a PC :-).  You'll need to be
connected to an EtherTalk net and load a packet driver that allows
class 11 (Ethernet with 802.2 headers, for Phase II) packets and has
th multicast functions.  The README files explain the rest.
