The following appeared on the CompuServe IBM PC SIG, and may be of
interest to Crosstalk-XVI users. For registered users of versions 3.4
and later, note that there is no charge for this update. From other
articles on CompuServe, it appears the update to Crosstalk Mark IV
(currently delayed) will be ca. $50 to registered users.
(My only connection with Microstuf is as a friend of one of the authors
of xtalk.)
