>You're using Mac right?

  I'm not sure whether you're talking about using something called "Mac 
right" (or "Macwrite"?), or correctly using something called "Mac", but if 
"Mac" means "Macintosh", I'm not using one at all.
  I have the character-set on my PC set to "international", rather than 
"USA", hoping that I'd see the proper characters in a lot of French, 
German, and Swedish posts that have been appearing in one of the groups 
that I read.  Unfortunately, it appears that those Europeans are using a 
character-set called "Latin-3", which is not one of the sets available on 
my PC (by using various combinations of COUNTRY, CHCP, and MODE commands 
in the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files).
