   Howdy DEC Rainbow Fans...

   Well, it figures!  I've received two some-what-flame messages on
   my posting.  That was to be expected... However, I really deserved
   it.  There was A BUG during the uploading of the .ARC file. Shame
   on me!  So, as I should have done earlier, here is a NOTICE that
   it exists.  Anyone who wants a copy, please e-mail me directly and
   you'll receive a NEW copy via return e-mail.

   If I get an OVERWHELMING response, I'll post it again.

   I have tested the whole up/down-load, en/de-code process and the
   new .ARC seems uncorrupted.  I am not sure what happened the
   first time since both Kermits were set for binary transfer.
   Maybe something in the transfer caused the receiving Kermit
   to think it was an incoming text file...sort of like slipping
   gears.  Who knows?

   To any Rainbow user who needs ARC.  You can use ARC for the PC.
   It's an MS-DOS program and I am not aware of any special version
   for the PC-compatible market.  Need ARC?  Send me an e-mail.
   Need specialized software info, programming help, or just need
   advice on the machine, send me an e-mail.

   Enjoy,
   Alan
