   Hello Shaun,

   The software I use to publish the Gazette is DOS-based software from 1989.    
   The maximum line length is 70 characters each.  I am talking about posting the   
   entire FG in a single message; some older DOS software cannot handle huge   
   messages so I need to split them into smaller chunks.  I'm going to look intop   
   that this weekend.   
      
   So when I mean is splitting the FG into smaller chunks to post.
