I second this recommendation! Actually, you don't need the Netware
requestor to do TCP/IP; it works over ethernet or slip also.
There is also freely available, PM-based, gopher client and
server software. IBM is supposedly working on an upgrade to their
TCP/IP package that includes a very nice PM-based newsreader also.
