My answer to your first question is "I am not sure". I have only used
Souper95/Yarn95 with the 0.9* versions of Yarn95. In regards to your
second query, I don't quite understand your point. You seem to be
saying that you want to continue using the same version of Yarn (0.89)
with Win95, although you originally asked about obtaining a later
version of Yarn95. However, if you MEANT to ask whether or not you can
transfer your current Yarn setup(s), should you install Yarn95 (0.9*)
on your Win95 system, then the answer is "Yes". If you download, and
extract, the files in the Yarn95, v. *.9*, distribution, you should
find a text file named english.upg. Look it over... It will give you
the information you need to install Yarn95 (0.9* versions) and convert
your v.0.89 newsbase.

I hope this helps.
