Check out FTP Software. stev@ftp.com is a possible inquiry address; they also have been advertising in a variety of UNIX magazines and even some MS-DOS oriented ones. Their library is quite good, especially given MS-DOS limitations. There was a review recently in PC Magazine. Interestingly, the Editor's Choice was an IBM product even though it was slower and more difficult to install than several others. FTP's product was highly rated in the article, however. Big Blue's presence is everpresent. jim frost software tool & die madd@std.com
