Need a favor - sleep.exe?

[Ian Cairns]

I wonder how many people know that Ctrl+h (^h) represents backspace?

I sent Scott a ZIP yesterday and it hasn't come back...

Of course, maybe someone at NSA was having a slow day and was able to 'check it out' the same day he stole^h^h^h^ was asked to review it...

[Ian Cairns]

Many sites, commercial or government, will not accept, or permit you to send certain files. I cannot send .exe, .com, .vbs, or even (aargh!!!) .zip.
The way I get around it is to give the file I want to send an innocuous extension (.xyz, or even .doc) and include instructions in the message to save the file as *.zip or *.exe.
Usually, I forget the first time and have to re-send after a bounce-back.

You want that on 3.5 or 5.25 floppy? (pick one)

I 'assume' you want it mailed to the postal address at the web site, since there is no email in this post or at the web site.

[Scott Turchin]

Any chance someone can compile this for me?
I'm on a work machine, don't have my PB DOS here, but I need this sleep command to allow a cdrom to spin up (SCSI)...

Would greatly appreciate it!!

$LIB All Off
$ERROR All On
