Well assuming that VLT works the same way the only time my A500 gets bogged down is when VLT has too high a Priority. (It got set high when i was using a DIR tool to run it) When the Pri was 2, i might as well take a nap waiting for a LS to come back to me. Check ya Priorities, (Try ARTM ect...) PS: I've noticed (Via snoopdos) that Zmodem (XPRzmodem) checks the env: var zmodem for SOMTHING.. What's it looking for? Default settings for using the "Cli Zmodem thinggie" (My guess) C-ya. . -- yorkw@ecn.purdue.edu Willis F York ---------------------------------------------- Macintosh...
