Okay. It works! Downloaded the gz file beautifully. ;-)

Needed to go into expert mode (cough) and select 'modem'.
I dialed in from the wizard.
So next time when I need to dial in where do I go to do that? I have been
looking but there's nothing obvious..... (to me).
And if I want to disconnect where do you do that?

Getting back to the gcc compiler. I've compiled my program (now called hi.c)
but what command do I use to run the program?

Thanks for everybodies help
Janice
