   i would if i wrote C schtuff...

    ac> what HPT is.   
      
   that's why i said "a changelog"... it may have been in the message api as it   
   had something to do with some date field...   
      
    ml>> husky stuff would be supported directly but, as previously noted, i   
    ml>> haven't found anything in the available documentation... i don't   
    ml>> think there's anything in the "unused" directory that would pertain   
    ml>> to the husky stuff, either... when i look at config.c, i don't see   
    ml>> anything for any other configurations other than squish... at the   
    ml>> minimum i need JAM support for all areas... i don't read C/C++ as   
    ml>> well as i used to and i don't write C/C++ at all other than very   
    ml>> simple fixes that i may discover needing to be done...   
      
    ac> Keep in mind most of the work on timEd stopped after it was ported to UNIX   
    ac> in 2003.   
      
   oh... i wasn't really aware of that... i've just been using my original   
   pre-y2k patched one... recently i've moved a lot of my personal stuff to my   
   linux workstation so i wanted to maybe also try timed... i have golded and it   
   is ok but timed has always been my favorite...   
      
    ac> A couple of minor features were added but the bulk of the code dates   
    ac> back to late 1995 when the original author Gerard van Essen stopped   
    ac> working on it. Which predates Husky by several years.   
      
   shouldn't be too much problem ;)   
      
    ac> Currently JAM support is buggy and most likely completely broken, and   
    ac> it's disabled by default in XMSGAPI for that reason. It might work if   
    ac> you use SMAPI instead of XMSGAPI, but you might encounter other   
    ac> problems that I've long since forgotten about.   
      
   oh no... if JAM doesn't work, that's a show stopper... the husky stuff is   
   using smapi and there is jam and squish in the output libsmapi.so file... i'm   
   not sure what other formats are being used, though... i just have JAM set up   
   for everything and since i'm using BSO, even my netmail area is JAM instead of   
   MSG... times like this i kinda wish i had learned C so that i could maybe fix   
   things like this :(
