Let's go with no-fee software that runs almost everywhere. Even the VMS guys can use zoo! I expect arc v6.00 to be ported to UNIX soon (source is included) but that doesn't solve the basic problem. Now if zoo could only be posted on services like Compu$serve it could sweep the world. -- bill davidsen (wedu@ge-crd.arpa) {uunet | philabs}!steinmetz!crdos1!davidsen "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
