  I can't find Bielefeld's copy of RSX and I don't know where it is. Sorry.

  The FAQ says:-

It is not there now. It has been moved to
ftp.winsite.com/pub/pc/win3/programr/rsx*.zip :-
rsxnt1.zip      386101  Create Win32 apps with RSXNT and EMX GNU-C/C++ compiler
rsxwdk2b.zip    283090  Build 32bit Win apps with GNU-C/C++ (1/2) [binaries]
rsxwdk2s.zip    301360  Build 32bit Win apps with GNU-C/C++ (2/2) [source]
rsxwin3b.zip    102689  rsxwin:run 32-bit emx/dos programs in a window
  (That directory's index file also lists
rsxwin2a.zip     59288  Run EMX/GCC programs in a MS-Windows 3.1 window
  but I can't find the file.)

I FTP logged in (anonymous) to ftp.aiai.ed.ac.uk , but as I was working my way
down its directory tree, when I reached /pub/packages/tex2rtf/rtfutils/
something sent "permission denied" to me and wouldn't let me go further in.
