- Great; now that one of my questions has been answered, what about the other
- three? For those with short newreaders, they were:
-
- 1) Can someone FTP parts 1 and 4 of the novaterm 9_4.sfx files to an ftp
- site?
-
- 2) How on earth can you de-archive the commodore files sitting in wuarchive.
- wustl.edu??
-
- 3) Does anyone, anywhere, have a decent disk/file copier for the C-128???
- (I'm not picky---I'll even take the 1571 shell, if it copies files! 8)
-
- Thanx for answering that one question though.
-
- Later!!!
