    ml> probably... first i've heard of it...   
      
   I stopped using timEd regularly a few years ago, but I used to just auto-run   
   fconf2squish whenever I got new mail, and used the SquishCfg keyword in   
   timed.cfg.   
      
   Someone else can add HuskyCfg support to timEd if they want.

   There is nothing in the timEd changelog about HPT. timEd does not know what   
   HPT is.

   Keep in mind most of the work on timEd stopped after it was ported to UNIX in   
   2003. A couple of minor features were added but the bulk of the code dates   
   back to late 1995 when the original author Gerard van Essen stopped working on   
   it. Which predates Husky by several years.   
      
   Currently JAM support is buggy and most likely completely broken, and it's   
   disabled by default in XMSGAPI for that reason. It might work if you use SMAPI   
   instead of XMSGAPI, but you might encounter other problems that I've long   
   since forgotten about.
