        That's odd...  In the later years of Pcomm's developement, the
        code was written on a 386 with ISC 2.0.2.  I use it daily from
	an Xterm window without any troubles.

	Sorry my email bounced...

I wonder what version of Pcomm you have...  The latest is Pcomm v1.2.8
and is available via anonymous ftp from cerl.cecer.army.mil
(129.229.1.101).
