Message   Holger Granholm    Ed Vance   Re: High ASCII Characters   April 12, 2018
 9:37 AM *  

In a message on 04-10-18 Ed Vance said to Holger Granholm:

GE Ed,

 HG>That is not true. I can write a text file in PCDOS or OS/2 and read
 HG>and printout all those high-ASCII characters from Notepad.

 DS>   Then, Ed must have a different setting with Notepad, or it won't
 DS> show them within MultiMail.

I haven't set any settings in Notepad and don't know if that's possible.

EV> Re: the OS/2 of MultiMail that You use, MR/2 2.30 as seen in Your
EV> Tagline:

 HG> -- MR/2 2.30

That is NOT any form of MultiMail but a totally different QWK-reader.
I do have MultiMail for OS/2 installed, but rarely use it but I have
tested it.

EV> I was wondering if MultiMail had released a newer version of their
EV> DOS or Windows program, so I looked and saw the latest version shown
EV> on their page was v. 0.49 .

So was I, so I threw out a question about it and was told that there is
no official new version (v0.50) but an unofficial version 0.50 is avail-
ble somewhere.

EV> I looked around some of the pages and saw a message William McBrine
EV> wrote about a newer OS/2 version of MultiMail.

Since MultiMail for OS/2 isn't very important for me, I don't bother.

EV> I have seen You write about being comfortable with the MM version
EV> that You've been using but I thought to write You about the newer
EV> version in case You may want to investigate it for Yourself.

You are mixing apples and pears. MM isn't the same as MR but there is a
MUltiMail version for OS/2 and that is the one I have installed but not
using regularly.
