PK> From my ancient "Bluewave Products List", dated June 2000 [1], I have PK> these entries, two going the other direction: PK> BlueQWK 1.70 BLUEQ170.ZIP DOS Geoffrey Sy PK> Converts BW packets to QWK packets. PK> BW2QWK 2.2 BW2QWK22.ZIP DOS Ronald E. Raikes PK> Converts BW packets to QWK packets. PK> QWacK 0.96 QWACK096.* DOS George Hatchew PK> Converts QWK packets to Blue Wave packets, and Blue Waver reply PK> packets to QWK reply packets. All of those were only needed with the 2.12 and earlier versions of the BlueWave Reader, which didn't have QWK support built-in. The 2.20 Versions and following have the QWK support built-in so no need for any utility to convert them. I routinely read and reply to QWK packets in my BW reader now... as you can see from the lines below, I'm using the 2.20/DOS version. ttyl neb ... Hard disks never die...they just grind away. ___ Blue Wave/QWK v2.20 --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5 * Origin: The Holodeck -www.holo.homeip.net -telnet//:holo.hom (1:261/1381) |
