Though I agree to some degree , I do want to mention one thing.  Everyone
has terms that they will not understand.  I know apple owners who have
never heard of kermit.  Others who have no idea what souces 1/6 mean
(I didnt and I HAVE a GS!).

Along the same line, here are a few more gripes from someone in hot watter
with the family after spending a whole weekend fighting with downloads:
1. When I exec executioner (which I knew about) I get something called
executioner.mod - but no note as to what the Modification was.  Could
someone elaborate?
2. When I exec George.exe, I cannot extract it using blu 2.28.
3. When I execute BLU 2.29, I got Blu 2.28 - and the author knows nothing
about a Blu 2.29.
4. When I attemp]ed to exec P8.SETUP I was unable to get it to work.
5. I have tried numerous times to get mail thru to whitney@think.com -
though our local path databasii say that you talk to rutgers, rutgers
denies this strenously.  Can you help from your end?
6. I have NEVER gotten a successful EZ Install from the Kermit 3.* software
distribution.  Could someone upload the DOS 3.3 Binary II creation and
splitting programs?  Perhaps THOSE could be used if folks still object (sigh)
to using a superious operating system.
7. Has anyone compared Executioner 4 bit against uuencode, atob, or
binhex?  Why cannot we use the 6 bit Executioner - it saves a LOT of space!

Thanks all!
