I am still playing with the older version and cannot get any cursor (even 
with mouse X in the rxvt) when I try to use telnet or e3pi from rxvt.  
Will the TERM change fix this?  I could edit files but not see where I 
was.

Lynx works in rxvt and I was able to view gifs and jpegs by editing 
lynx.cfg, removing the # in front of the line that has instructions above 
it to provide the full path to xli.  There was also a choice of xv instead 
on another line.  The screen is somewhat scrambled at times in lynx 
(pieces of the previous page still appear on the next page) so I may need 
to get the later libncurses unless someone has a better idea.  I want to 
try it anyway for Kermit, which wont' work right now (floating point 
problem).  

I will try the most recent version after we get a disk formatted with
DR-DOS.  DO I understand correctly that you can put baslin in c:\ d: e: or 
f: on the first drive and in the first partition of other drives?  
I will check out  mailto: also, thanks.  Might not be for a few days.
