Good Afternoon!
The WinZephyr release team is currently revising WinZephyr, to improve
usability. Several command-line utilities have been added, including
zwrite, zlocate and zpunt. Most of the modifications are being made to the
Preferences dialog box so that it will be easier to navigate, and changes
will be easier to make. Modifications include increased consistency for
the storage of WinZephyr configuration files, better Athena compatibility,
and improved usability for the Znol utility. We expect to release
WinZephyr in September.
WinZephyr is a communication service for sending and receiving
instantaneous messages, called Zgrams. WinZephyr will make Zephyr
communication, previously available only on Macintosh and Athena platforms,
available to Windows users.
For more information, see the WinZephyr Release Notebook, at

winzephyr-release@mit.edu.
