I've never used WinDIS >but understand it uses the same filesystem convention as the >plain DOS software? Same filesystem, yes. But it actually runs alongside a winsock and therefore runs at the same time as web browsing, etc. Demon's KA9Q and its variants would need to be run standalone (and therefore require a seperate dial-up). They're also not so user-friendly to a Windows user (which is why us DOSers like it so much :-) Is there a version of KA9Q which will run using winsock? That would be a very useful port, but whether or not it is feasible I don't know. I know there are versions which run off alternative stacks, but whether they can interface with Windows I don't know. -- Mark Rogers (Software Engineer) -o- mark@controlware.demon.co.uk 2M_ControlWare, Yaxley, Peterborough, ENGLAND.
