- If you are a first time user, it maybe easier for you to retrieve the BASIC
- source code for UU/encode/decode.... You will get it as text... and then use
- any standard version of basic to run it, like GWBASIC, or quick basic, I did
- that myself when I first tried to get files from public sites.
-
- use any trickle server like TRICKLE@FRMOP11 or TRICKLE@AWIWUW11
- send a message including HELP only and read the file for usage..
- check the directory <MSDOS.STARTER> it has all what you need to start.
- the file <MSDOS.FILEDOCS>SIMLIST.ZIP has a listing of all the pub. dom.
- stuff available from SIMTEL@) and mirror sites and others like trickle servers..
- If you still have a problem contact me and I will get the BASIC source code
- for you..
