an os/2 port of fxuucico? i'm not sure... maybe a native version but i'm not
sure on that, either... i used to run waffle bbs as a door under my RA and i
had fxuucico on the back side pulling email and news but i don't recall if
that was on the DOS side of my os/2 or not... when i went to GIGO, i used
whatever it had and then later was able to use the GIGOTCP addon package... i
was previously doing everything over POTS and was then able to get a better
connection to the 'net... unfortunately i don't have that stuff any more as
i've had to update the hard drives a time or two and that resulted in only the
important stuff being moved over before the old drives died...

at this site

  http://www.rxn.com/services/faq/uucp/

a CTRL-F search for fxuucico in my browser gives only two results... the DOS
version and the documentation... apparently there's only the DOS version and i
know that it works fine on the DOS side of os/2...
