No. Actually, I only put it up there because there was some difficulty in it being hosted elsewhere, as I understood it, probably because David had over-written it with the newer version.

Is there a need for another website source of packages for BL2 and BL3 ?
If so, I can set it up OK. But I think it is not a good idea to spread the add-ons too thin unless there is a problem with space at the existing sites. In that case, I should limit what I hold to those things without a home elsewhere. There is no point in mirroring your website, Sindi, unless you have to clear stuff out.

I have had a poor performance from console dosemu, with many of the characters being oddly mapped.
Xdosemu has performed well under X (I do not use vesa) for:
DOS Navigator XTreeGold Pedit Pictview Lxpic Arachne(off-line) MSP PKZip/PKUnZip Tutordo MPEG.EXE
CDFE (my CD player) my Chemical Data Package all of my own stuff that I have tried.
It has (so far) failed to run:
Professional Write CDP DOS Controller(this is a real disappointment for me) QuickView DSS MPXPLAY
I continue to try things.
Regards,
Ron
