It had been referenced in the Chameleon docs and fortunately, one of my callers is a Fido sysop from Sweden was able to track it down and upload it to my board. I just mailed this to Russell's board. > WELMAT - Current Verion 0.23, this is a complete Replacement of the Now >Obsolite BinkleyTerm for the Amiga. This is written ON/FOR the Amiga, and >takes advantage of a lot of the advantages of the Amiga. I just file requested this from Russell and now have it on my board. If you are interested in being a Fidonet point, have a Fidonet sysop request these files for you: Amypoint.arc Ce010.zoo Cm110pat.zoo Cmexe110.zoo cmdoc100.zoo Welmt023.zoo rmb130.zoo btexe100.zoo btdoc100.zoo Cmexe110.zoo, Cm110pat.zoo and Cmdoc100.zoo are the Confmail files and docs for processing incoming and outgoing mail. Amypoint.arc has a short documentation file plus a modified version of PKXARC for use with confmail. As Russell mentioned, there are two message editors. I had problems with RMB crashing my A2000 system, so I switched to Chameleon (ce010.zoo) and I have had no problems and like it better. Btexe100.zoo and Btdoc100.zoo are the Amiga versions of Binkleyterm although I would recommend using Michael Richardson's Welmat program (welmt023.zoo). Though my system is only 2400 baud, it is PCPursuitable and it maybe cheaper for your sysop to get them from me rather than calling Canada where Russell is.
