RE: [Lynx-dev] Version Inqury

[Johnson, Tracy]

Thanks,

Yes it has a POSIX shell.  I should add, someone will eventually have to
make the compile attempt.  Compiles on this machine are made by
volunteers or subscribers.

It has a command log in prompt if you telnet to: invent3k.openmpe.com

It works as web site also, just put http:// in front of it.)

(Excuse the broken picture icons, someone is working on the web page.)
