Talking about PINE, (I didn't try 4.10 rpm) I don't think I have ever
tried any version which worked with pilot correctly when calling the
files.

Attach, CTRL J, then CTRL T (or something like that), boom crash. This
happened with all port. I believe this is directly related to the fact
that i don't have an FPU. (like calling a file selector would, or even
PINE in general, would benefit from FPU). But none of the people using
same version BUT with fpu worked, also when I had an fpu (for 10 min), I
tried and it worked.
Yet many people told me, that it most unlikely that it was a problem
related to FPU.

Anyway my question is:  is there any version of pine > 3.96 that fully
works?  that is: pilot, attaching files and GETTING files without being
corrupted? and all that with NO FPU fitted in.
Thank you.
