Thank you _SOOOO_ much!!! It works using SSH across my local LAN, and I have no reason to expect that it won't work across the Internet too. Using the -C parameter (to compress data), it works very comfortably. Without the -C the print preview completely crawls (because it's a graphic mode), though this was not necessary for WordPerfect in normal text mode. Brilliant job. Well done. Many, many thanks.
