This must have something to do with the merging of eGroups groups
with oneList with Yahoo . Quite confusing .

I see dalis@... in the member list .
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cosy-notecomputing/members
so something seems awry . Somehow I think there must be some way
to reestablish that identity . Otherwise I guess I can delete it
and resubscribe you .

I assume you can't access the any of the member only areas of
the group - like the files .
Members should be able to click
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cosy-notecomputing/files/
to see the files before downloading .

K now loads itself into c:\windows\ and runs from there .

By "root" , I mean c:\ . so the name of the "workspace" directory
you start in ".CoSy" in K simply maps to the dos directory
name \CoSy . ( Note , inside K you can simply use the UNIX/WEB
forward slash : "/CoSy" which is easier because \ is the
escape character in K so you have to write "\\CoSy" in K . )

Thus any subdirectories you might make , like .CoSy.BobA or
.CoSy.Acnts will map to MS \CoSy\BobA or \CoSy\Acnts .
Note also that while Arthur has implemented the enormous
convenience of automatically creating on the fly any directory
path you assign to , eg :
.CoSy.People.Raj : newjob ; .CoSy.People.Raj. : newjob.
works even if People never existed before . That's not true ,
of course , for writing to MS directories .
That's why I suggest making a directory \CoSy right from the
start .

Thank you .
We'll get this solved . Worst happens , I'll email the files .
