The latest version of the best stevie variant (jstevie from Japan) is available via anonymous ftp from ural.ethz.ch (129.132.40.10) under software/src/jst.tar.Z >Thanks in advance. You're welcome in retrospect.

Actually, stevie has some major problems. However, a Japanese University started working on it, and a mail group was formed to work on developing it. The group has since died :-(, but you can get jstevie's sources and binaries for various platforms at utsun.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp You might also want to look into Elvis. I, however, found that one of Stevie's limitations (file can't be bigger than available mem) is also one of its assets; it is significantly faster than Elvis, especially on slower machines. No garish colors either... Bob Rusbasan bob@en.ecn.purdue.edu
