True, but 2.1 adds: Buffered/Unbufferd (split-screen) Chat, improved VT- 100 and other terminal emulation, mah bug fixes, ZMODEM, and some other features which I can't think of off-hand. One note though, 2.0 and 2.1 both require a 65C02 chip (ie. Enhanced IIe, IIc, IIc Plus, or IIGS). |--------------------------( Carl Boernecke )-------------------------| Send | UUCP: crash!pro-avalon!carlb InterNet: carlb@pro-avalon.cts.com | E-Mail | ARPA: crash!pro-avalon!carlb@nosc.mil ProLine: carlb@pro-avalon | to --> | ProLine [pro-avalon] - (619) 271-0131 - 300-2400 bps - 24 hours | |---------------------------------------------------------------------|

also, someone mentioed it having been released..in the PIRATE world, maybe but Checkmate, as of last week, is still waiting, of all things, NEW PACKAGING before they can ship it. They may have sstarted shipping by now but I doubt it. We all know how that works...when they say a week, they mean a month...
