REgrading my above message, I have had a number of responses, but I don't
think the problem is at my end of the link.  I have managed to DL some
files from gmd.de , but when I try to get dos-386.tads2exe.zip from them
I get the following message:

UCX-E-FTP_OPNOUT, Error opening for output: dos-386.tads2exe.zip
RMS-F-SYN, File specification syntax error

So what am I doing wrong and can someone send it to me direct.
 
Thanks
Joe

P.S.  If I can't get this I may have to go back to AGT, and TADS looks
so much more versatile.

P.P.S.  Does anyone know of a system which also allows use of .bmp or .pcx
graphics files within the game system?
