Hello. I am wondering if it would possible for you to mail me one or
two of the files in the disks mentioned in your article. In particular,
I am very interested in the two files:

GEMCL6.DOC
and GEMCL6.C

If you could upload either of the above to your system and then mail
me a copy, it would be greatly appreciated! If it is not possible,
thanks anyway! Keep up the good work.

Where do I get a copy of these disks?
I have several friends who have 520's and
I'm getting a 1040 when they are available.
