Dunno, sorry. 1.90j1 is the first version I use. The only way to be sure 
for you is to upgrade and test. However, 1.90j1 is slow on my PC, maybe 
that has something to do with the fact that DOS can't handle 
multitasking. On the other hand, I used it after having booted from a 
diskette, so my DOS/Arachne configuration is anything but optimised...

The good with copying and pasting is that you don't need to understand 
what you're copying :)
