Sure it works--
but looks like Chinese to me...
"`...
1 day ago...
I'll study it.
Many thanks
By the way, anybody knows of a remote system where I can check the teraterm 
pro?
Those at school wouldn't let me get connected with anything other than the 
putty because of the security reasons; I need to ask them for a special 
permition to use this client, but I want to know how much better is it than 
the putty. Is it only telnet?


Thanks a lot!
Ned
