-Thanks for the info. I'll give newspost a chance. I don't mind working
from the prompt.

Ive tried Pan but the version I tried didn't seem to decode yEnc. Otherwise
Pan was great.

As far as Fedora is concerned. I can now do everything with Linux that I
did with Windows. I wrote a script for the OO spread*** so I can do
invoices for my business and that was the last hold-up.

Thanks again for the help!
