I sent it and hopefully you'll get it. The disk also has ShrinkIt
on it, which comes in handy. I can also supply you with several
different versions of DSK2FILE which lets you make disks
from images once they are transferred. I think I'll put these on
my site this evening, then people can have at them.

Nice thing about TELIX is that it runs in an MS-DOS Prompt
window and you can do other stuff without interfering with
the transfers.

I'm not sure what that was all about but I've been fine at 9600
all along, never had to go at 300 baud, which by the way takes
like 45 minutes to transfer DOS 3.3. I think I used ADT once,
and that was to get Comm.System to my only Apple IIgs back
when I got started, last year was it? Yeah, that's it. If you need
further help I'm always in the books and trying new things on
these. I must have several hardware and software things going
on all the time. I just can't stop. ;-)
