  • winpoint files

    From Alan Beck@1:229/426.36 to All on Sat May 11 11:28:08 2024

    //Hello All,//

    Hi,

    I am unable to post on winpoint as I have no traffic from there.

    I am using Winpoint and wish to ask for files.

    A direct connection to my Boss Node resulted in files coming from there.

    There is a plethoria of files anounced from other sources that I cannot download.

    There is an option in winpoint to download files from the text of a message.

    Would openxp be better?

    Can't believe all the stuff I need to learn if I want files.

    Thank you in advance

    Alan

    Regards,

    Huh? You seem to be posting just fine.

    Hopefully the Winpoint author could provide some tips on how to
    conduct a file-request.

    File-requests are *very* straightforward in OpenXP! :D
