I am really PO'ed. Twice now I have downlaoded Terminus (it takes about 40 minutes at 2400 baud!) and taken the time to set up the necessary files and disk only to have it not work. I very carefully read and followed the instructions for the floppy disk install. The installation program reports a successful installation. BUT…when I try to run Terminus, a message box appears which says "Terminus evaluation release outdated. Please obtain a more recent version." I downloaded the Terminus archive in January but only recently decided to give it a try. When that message appeared on the screen, I figured some kind of timing routine figured out that it had been too long since I had download the program–therefore, it was outdated. So, I went back to the library and downloaded it again. After going through all the set up steps again, I got the exact same message. I tried both trms20.lha and txe20d.lha. IF THE RELEASE IN THE LIBRARY IS OUTDATED, GET RID OF IT. [Yes, I am shouting. I am really angry (as well as being frustrated) about this!] If I am doing something wrong, HELP. I don't know what else to do. I followed the instructions. Any suggestions will be most appreciated. Thanks, Al
