- The problem may be(I addition to others<g>) Atari in their infinite wisdom
- decided that since an 850 interface is an "R:" device, a modem well be a "T:"
- (for telephone) device ergo some stuff that looks for a "R:" will get
- confused by only having a "T:" there. Ditto for stuff looking for a "T:"
- & finding a "R:". I just checked my handler & it's 2.5k so typing it in is
- out of the question. Where are you & how are you currently getting the
- programs to the Atari (my VP impression)? If you send me your address, I
- could probably mail you a copy of the thing.
