Johnny It's been some years ago, but I did a bunch of work to make it talk well with RSTS/E. And I thought others had done the RSX work. I remember the rumor that it was dropped. Too bad. But there's no reason the older version couldn't be used, unless your chosen platform requires a later one. paul
