Hi, N.P. You can either use FTP client in the regular "shell" mode or the FTP interface provided by Emacs. I think it speaks quite well. Just type: m-x ftp <ENTER> then type in your FTP site. There is also a good package called Ange-FTP. Did you try it? It has a widgit-like interface (or in Windows terms, Explorer-like interface). The same applies to "Telnet" program. You can either run it quietly in the "shell mode" or use m-x telnet. Definitely, terminal programs like Pine and Lynx do not run well neither in "shell mode'" nor in "eterm mode". Best, Vic
