concerning 2.1.5 ... this used to work - but doesn't now - and i can't figure out why not! a) i make a .profile alias such as a="cd /" for example. if i type "alias" it shows up. if i enter "a", i get "a: command not found". if i change alias "a" to any other letter - the alias works! b) i use "cu" to dial up a vt100 connection. for a long time i couldn't figure out how to set vt100 emulation up with "cu". (i don't see how "tip" is any better and don't find "cu" as bad as people say!). anyway - my connection to this vt100 terminal would always close because it would not detect vt100 on my end. the only way i could "trick" my set-up was to enter: modem none network vt100 on in my ttys file. i'm sure this is a terrible hack - and i always have to re-boot my machine if i call non-vt100 BBSs before i dialup the vt100 terminal again. any suggestions other than other software? btw - i'm VERY impressed with alot of the stuff coming out of Holland! very CLEAN code and super performance! such as XS-HTTP www server and zmrx-zmtx (hehe - the docs on the zm code are so funny the code is worth downloading for that reason alone! hehe!) --------------------------------------------------------- Get Your *Web-Based* Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ---------------------------------------------------------
