Will not be. This will reduce the likelihood of hooliganism        SM>> and will only allow those who understand what they are doing to        SM>> use this program.               CP> That makes sense, I guess. In theory, someone could abuse it and spam       echoes I        CP> suppose.              It's not so scary. The moderator can always turn off the system with which the       spam entered the network. It is much worse to put on the Internet without       asking what should not be uploaded there.               SM>> This is not necessary now. The program has its own configuration        SM>> files, which even contain short descriptions, and command line        SM>> switches. In addition, it is no longer tied to a specific tosser        SM>> and processes the PKT itself.               CP> Both ways? To and from Fido?              Yes. Both ways. It can be used as hidden point system, as I use it now, or       technical node like 2:460/256. It works like a tosser.               AA>>> The code is in perl. Thus, a *nix system would be required.        SM>> Not necessary. http://strawberryperl.com/               CP> Ahh, perhaps a better version than one I looked at.              I use that on my windows system.              Have nice nights.        Stas Mishchenkov.              --- Самое страшное не то, что мы теперь взрослые.
