If you take a quick glance at the header (you know, the thing at the top of
your screen right now), you might notice a field that says "Attchmnt", which
is an abbreviation for "Attachment".
Use your cursor keys (the things on you keyboard that have little arrows
instead of letters) to navigate to the top of your message. Press ^T (strg or
ctrl while pressing the T key) when you've reached the "Attchmnt" field.

Enjoy.

Robin

       On the package it said: "Requires MS Windows 3.11 or better"

James:

One other point to make.  If you are using a telnet client to access Pine
(for instance, a dial-up connection to an ISP), the attach files process
(^T) will only pull files that reside on the Unix Host you are using.  If
you have files on your PC (that you are using to make such a dial-up
connection) you'll have to use a FTP client to transfer the files from
your PC to your Unix home directory (or wherever else you want them).

Happy attaching!
