I normally run Netdial (I can see Marc's house from here) and EPPPD
in one directory and after conecting a batch file makes a copy of
wattcp.cfg in each of the different directories of: Minuet (for FTP),
Pegasus Mail (PMPOP), HTGET, Bobcat, and tcpport.exe (for NNTP).
My batch lets me close any program and continue any other one.
I have not tryed it with Arachne. I am working lately with only a
80286 with 2 Mby and an hercules monitor.
