For no obvious reason known to man, today, I swapped the hard drive
on my Pro, exchanging the one with RT-11 on it for the one with
P/OS 3.2 on it. (the editor is muh nicer under P/OS, and the whole
keyboard inst activiated under RT)

Anyways, I downloaded some files from the DECUS RSX BBS, in hopes of
running them under P/OS (P/OS _is_ a brain-damaged version of RSX,
isnt it?)        

Anyways, after I was done downloading them, I returned to command
level of P/OS and tried to RUN one of them: $ RUN COOKIE, and 
P/OS reports that this file is not a task image. Ok, so I tried
INSTALL and INSTALL/FIX, with the same results...

The question being: shouldnt RSX executables run under P/OS? I mean,
P/OS is supposed to run RSX stuff, isnt it?? Or perhaps I am mistaken?
Or something...

(fyi, in case anyone asks. I used Kermit, and on my end of Kermit I set
it for automatic detection of file types: SET FILE AUTO. After it 
didnt work the first time, I tried SET FILE BINARY, so I know its 
probably not an error in the transfer, most likely an something with
P/OS)
