Hi..

I'm going to need to download this program
so I can print from Pine Mail under 
Windows 95.

I've look though the http://www.tucows.com
site under telnet applications and didn't
find it.  Does anyone have the url for
this program?

Thank you for any assistance.

much appreciated

Kathleen

I don't think he was looking for PC pine -- I would not think he wants
to have his mail delivered to his box. For example he may not have
const IP. (True, one still could use imap, assuming server
supports it)

The best solution would be of course to install Linux :)

Not necessarily. I'm currently putting together a presentation, and I couldn't
do that with StarOffice for Linux because my boss doesn't have that on his
laptop. Duhhh... So I do what every Wintendo-player should do: I use MIX (the
MicroImages X-Server) to connect to my Linux server (guess what, a mail- and
newsserver will most happily run on a 486DX30 with 8MB). My own server is
actually a little better, because I use it as an intranetserver, proxy, and
application server for XEmacs, LyX and the like for my fiancee (Mac) and me
(dual boot Linux/Windog). Great stuff. 

Off topic? Sure. So: how do I change the darn from: line in pine? Just
kidding.

Have a nice one,
Robin

One can only guess that she has terminal access to pine running
remotely on a multiuser computer, and possibly that it's not
accessible to her on a LAN nor on a PPP link.  But I still don't
understand why she can use NCSA Telnet but not W95 telnet, since she
says (I think) that she is using W95.

But whatever the case may be as to that, the pine host presumably
has imapd. Tawfik Doud mailed a hint as to a _possibly_ better
solution than the one she had in mind. 

Even if she needs to transfer files from the pine host to her
Microsoft computer (or vice versa) to print them, she doesn't need
telnet, but ftp or zmodem.

NCSA Telnet is around, and with a bit of effort the URL could be
located, but it's a curious request.  Perhaps Kathleen can tell us
more about her situation.

because the telnet that ships with windows is utterly and completely
brain-dead. It can't even emulate VT100 correctly. 

FYI, NCSA telnet is probably at ncsa.uiuc.edu. However, CRT is one of the
best terminal programs under windows (they even have a version now that
supports secure connections via SSH and serial connections.

Probably.  But it would probably be better to get it from somewhere
else where it has had some more recent development.

To futher add to the off-topic discussion, TeraTerm Pro is a free (with
source) terminal emulator for those times when you're forced to be on
a M$ operating system.  It also supports the ssh protocol.

    http://www.zip.com.au/~roca/ttssh.html

It's perhaps not quite as slick as CRT, but it is totally free.

To make this relevant to Pine discussion, I will add that I have used
Pine with ttssh and it worked well.

Excellent. Free source should be encouraged.

if i follow... you need to print pine mail on a pc?

should we assume pine is running on a unix host somewhere?

i use anzio [ www.anzio.com ] and LOVE it. it allows for pass
through printing as well as up and down load. 99% functional demo
available; real copy is only $25
