  23.     Without a doubt!  I was never able to get ANSI printing to work
  24.     properly-- even though I had flow control working properly (far as
  25.     I knew), chunks of material were lost in the transmission.  Finally
  26.     I set up Pine and Tin (when I was using those) to pipe the article/
  27.     mail into (C-Kermit 190) 'kermit -s - -a prn'.  Works like a charm.
