	Is MEX-Plus for CP/M-80 PD or do you buy it from NiteOwl ?
	I'd love to have it... I use straight PD MEX v1.14 now.

   Perhaps I should have said it clearly in my previous message, but MEX-Plus   
is the commercial (non-public-domain) version of MEX.  It costs $59.95 from     
NiteOwl Software or its dealers.  With MEX-Pack, which includes the terminal    
emulation modules and a module for remote operation, the price is $99.95.       
The main differences that I can think of now between MEX114 and MEX-Plus        
(version 1.65B) are: much more extensive scripting capability, support for      
YMODEM batch and 1K-block protocols, support for Kermit and Compuserve          
protocols, fancier video displays.                                              
                                                                                
   The address and phone number I have for NightOwl are:

   My wife's company, Sage Microsystems East (SME), is a dealer.  For orders    
placed and delivered by modem, the number is 1-617-965-7259 (password is        
DDT, 24-hour operation, 300/1200/2400 bps).  For download orders, SME can       
generally deliver within one day (you leave your order with credit card         
information, and a private file is left for downloading by the next day).       
However, we will both be away from June 23 to July 15.
