        Bless You, SIR!! 

        That works. It pops up a tiny, tiny terminal with alpine in it 
properly -- which sends, and I got it already at the address I post from.

        I'll have to be sure I need no extra proofreading, or else use a 
magnifying glass; but it does work.

        Bless you some more. If you ever pass nigh Blacksburg, VA, come 
and enjoy reminding me I owe you big time.
