Well, I just downloaded that new posting of Z-Link and did the Shrinkit extractions with no problems. *But* when I start up Z.LINK.SYSTEM, the program seems to load ok but then the screen goes blank and that's the end of it! Anyone else?? Jon M. Pearsall NASA Industrial Applications Center University of Pittsburgh

In fact, Zlink doesn't seem to exhibit the previous bugginess in connecting with my external modem when running other telecomms and then coming back to Zlink. - Evan / evan@unix.cis.pitt.edu

Ok, in a previous article I said: >Well, I just downloaded that new posting of Z-Link. . . extractions with >no problems. *But* when I start up Z.LINK.SYSTEM, the program seems to load > ok but then the screen goes blank and that's the end of it! Anyone else?? And I meant that *I get no title screen or anything*. The disk drive whirs as if loading the program and then the screen immediately goes blank and everything freezes up. Well, I can get some beeps when I hit certain keys. I suspect that I'm in monitor mode but that output isn't going to the screen. Jon M.
