[WINServer] Platinum Xpress 

    Hi Folks,€€ 

    

    With the new 2019 year coming, there are an old 1990s things I
    decided to resurrect -- Platinum Xpress!!€€ 

    

    PX/WIN was updated and what this means so far at this point is;€€
    PX/WIN was compiled using the latest wcSDK headers€€ and a new setup
    utility (INNO) was used with offers 32/64bit support. This means the
    new PX/WIN 7.0 setup/CD will work on modern OSes, unlike the PX/WIN
    2.0 Setup/CD which only worked on 32 bit machines.€€€€ We never did
    have a PX/WIN 3.0 Setup/CD.€€ You first installed 2.0 via the CD and
    then upgraded to 3.0 using the BBS online product update patches and
    zip files.

    

    We are giving this new PX/WIN a version 7.0 build 454.6 to make it
    align with Wildcat!.€€€€ If you are interested in refreshing your
    PX/WIN installation and given it a whirl,€€ please contact me off
    list.€€€€ 

    

    No deep testing has been done.€€ Nothing "Fido" related has been
    tested, i.e. imports/exports, attachments, etc.€€€€ I am using,
    testing and playing with PXTOOLS Sysop Editor now that I have PX/WIN
    v7.0 installed on my 64 bit Windows 7 home machine.€€€€ It all seems
    to work but I am only using PXTOOLS Sysop Editor, testing email and
    sending/receiving LONG FILE NAME (LFN) attachments.€€€€€€ Overall, LFN
    vs SFN related stuff needs to be tested and reviewed since LFN/SFN
    is really the only difference between the older WCSDK headers used
    for PX/WIN 4.0 and the current WCSDK headers used for PX/WIN 7.0.

    

    I should note that the following:

    

    o Still has the old *.HLP (help) files.€€ I can't find the help
    source files to recompile as *.CHM help files.€€ Maybe there is a€€
    HLP file decompiler like there is for CHM files.

    

    o The same exact PX/WIN 2.0 CD installed fidonet related files were
    used for installation, that means the old mail/file echo, backhone
    files were provided.€€ The installation will not overwrite any
    existing subfolder files if you upgrade on top of your current PXW
    folder.€€ In fact, the following are the files that are part of the
    new setup/installation:

    Some of the plans are:

    

    o Making PX/WIN part of the AUP,

    o Make sure the LFN/SFN is addressed where applicable,

    o Enhancing the PXTOOLS Sysop Editor to better support RFC5322, Mime
    Mail,

    o Extending the concepts of PX/WIN File/Mail Bone for a Wildcat!
    distributed network. i.e. PX/NET.

    

    Thanks for your long time support and have a great new year!
