Maybe the ISP didn't go for the latest version. My ISP
doesn't.

lynx's most unforgiveable failing IMO is that it does not do
tables.

This wasn't yesterday, and it's 30-pin. Even in USA this is
about $65.

:But, you could have had the best of both worlds. Why not just telnet into your

My ISP (who offers both shell and PPP) allows only one simultaneous login.

Back to the subject, I've followed this thread and investigated
the references. I've automated Yarn95 with the shell account (using
ProcommPlus for DOS and Aspect scripts) but I'm still not
clear on how to use Yarn95 with PPP. For example, souper95
comes with references to REXX and OS/2 notebooks. VSOUP
documentation also talks about OS/2.

Can anybody provide the batch files they use to send / retrieve with
YARN95 ?
