   It's a FTN editor? Did you believe it was a tosser? ;-)

   Hmm.. I saw in the msgapi there was a SASC libery included, which should be a   
   conio replacement for Amiga.   
      
   But who wants to run Dos based fidonet utilities on Amiga, then there is UMS   
   and other goodies? ;-)

   AmiQWK was quite used by many afair. BTW Can spot handle QWK packages too or   
   just FTN packages?

   Aha, didn't it use a external unpacker?
