As I recall, I found two: one for IBMs and one for Macs. The only way I could know the names of these programs is to go back and check through the entire lists, which you might go ahead and do yourself. The IBM site which had the program is at wsmr-simtel20.army.mil (FTP to get there). Download the list from the pd1:<msdos.filedocs> called simibm.zip. The program itself will probably be in the pd1:<msdos.education> directory, but I'm not sure about that. If you are not familiar with downloading from these sites, read the documentation about it or send mail. I'll be glad to give you the details. (One hint: when you are logged on to Simtel, type TENEX to get the proper downloading bitstream.) Mike ========================== Michael Wilson idoy@crux1.cit.cornell.edu ==========================
