    First, FTP, Telnet, and lynx have nothing to do with Pine. 
Creating a signature file depends on what operating system you are
using, which you did not specify, although your reference to Windows
95 would make me guess PC-Pine.  Unfortunately I am not knowledgeable
on using Pine other than under Unix, so I can't help you there.  As 
for a good book, I am not yet aware of any book dedicated to Pine as
such, because Pine as such is supposed to be relatively easy to use
with its online Help screens.  (Again, some of your questions have
nothing to do with Pine, and how you would use them depends in part on
your operating system.)

Hi Wanda,
I have Windows 95 too. I print email from home all the time. What specific
questions do you have. Since I'm at the UW (where PINE was born) I have
access to lots of help desk folks, so ask away one at a time, OK? J.
