    PK> From my ancient "Bluewave Products List", dated June 2000 [1], I have   
    PK> these entries, two going the other direction:   
    PK> BlueQWK 1.70           BLUEQ170.ZIP     DOS            Geoffrey Sy   
    PK> Converts BW packets to QWK packets.   
    PK> BW2QWK 2.2             BW2QWK22.ZIP     DOS            Ronald E. Raikes   
    PK> Converts BW packets to QWK packets.   
    PK> QWacK 0.96             QWACK096.*       DOS            George Hatchew   
    PK> Converts QWK packets to Blue Wave packets, and Blue Waver reply   
    PK> packets to QWK reply packets.   
      
   All of those were only needed with the 2.12 and earlier versions of the   
   BlueWave Reader, which didn't have QWK support built-in.  The 2.20   
   Versions and following have the QWK support built-in so no need for any   
   utility to convert them.  I routinely read and reply to QWK packets in   
   my BW reader now... as you can see from the lines below, I'm using the   
   2.20/DOS version.
