I did pick up Stevie from the recent posting in c.s.m. Unfortunately,
for use on PClones it requires some recent version of nansi.sys which
I have been unable to locate. I have found three (3) different versio
of nansi.sys on local BBS's, but none of them appears to be the right
one for Stevie--at least when I run it on the Nec Powermate 386/20
at work I get a garbage screen, with valid text intermixed with
much garbage, and it does not scroll properly either.

Can someone point me to (or kind person mail me) the correct version
of nansi.sys??  I do not have FTP access to anywhere, so if somebody
would mail it to me I would be forever indebted!

Thanks
