UK Lines: 18 In-reply-to: martyz@idui1.csrv.uidaho.edu's message of 12 Apr 91 16:00:16 GMT Two questions. First what *IS* MacTCP? Is it a delelopers tool designed to create standalone applications or is it a user purchased package required by other comms applications? No one at Apple UK knows anything about it, they just read the description, give me a US phone number and invite me to join a developer's group! If it's a user purchased product why can't I just buy it in a nice shiny box and clunk it into my Mac? If it's not why should I need it? Second question, how do I get hold of the version of NCSA Telnet 2.4Beta that doesn't need this non product? Thanks to any one who can sort out my confusion.
