Hi,

I have recently bought a fantastic piece of hardware called a mac mini which I leave on most of the time.

I can ssh into it from outside of my house, but I can't find a mail program which will let me read/send mail via the command line.

I can use pine, but it is Unix only, any suggestions?

Thanks

No, but I found a mac version

Now, I need a way of getting a screen dump, shouldn't be too hard with a bit of Java

Thanks

Yeah, I've gotten a good portion of my *nix code from work to compile and run on my friend's Mac. Only things I haven't gotten to work have been GUI and low-level stuff.
