Is it true that only 32 files can be tagged for download per session? And if this is not true, where/how can you set the number of files per download. I'd like an unlimited amount of files to be tagged or at least more than 32 files.

I have been away from this echo for some time, and am just now returning. I have been hearing recently from a number of Maximus sysops in my area that Maximus is apparently not as year 2000-compliant as it needs to be to function properly after the year 2000. Is this true? If it is, do you plan on releasing another version between now and the year 2000 to correct any deficiencies that might exist in the current version's ability to function properly after the turn of the century?

Now, either some bug in Max had turned it on, or one of my kitties managed to do it without me noticing, since I didn't turn it on for that particular session :-) Oh well, thanks for that - least now I know..

Just ruminating here, in the back room... One wonders: given that you use the same setup as under Win95 (I run Bink/NT 2.60, Maximus/Dos 3.01, Winfossil 1.10), and you upgrade to NT, will it still be possible to run Dos doors?

WinNT will not pass a hot comm handle from a 32 bit app to a 16 bit app. You have to run either all 32 bit native or all 16 bit (DOS) apps under NT. - Bob Internet : bob@juge.com Telnet, Vmodem, WWW or FTP to juge.com --- timEd/2 1.10+ * Origin: COMM Port OS/2 juge.com 204.89.247.1 (281) 980-9671 (1:106/2000) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 174 MUFFIN (MAXIMUS) Ref: F1E00001Date: 01/07/98 From: MICK HOWE Time: 02:47pm \/To: DAVID CHORD (Read 1 times) Subj: That damned 'K'? -=> Quoting David Chord to All <=- DC> Hello All!
