      OK. Not too many fidonetters (not even my ZC) noticed my effort to take MAKENL       into this new century. And -- needless to say -- I didn't get much       appreciation for it either. Even though even Robert Bashe himself promised me       I would. :)               And, as it now turns out, I didn't only fix the Y2K issue, I also fixed the       stupid ASCII issue. On top of that I also fixed the equally stupid issue about       BAUD rates (only six could be defined in the config file). But those latter       improvements, I didn't even tell anyone about... 8-)                     ----[ ENET.SYSOP ]------------------------------------------------------------       On: Sun 9 Jan 2000 17.41       By: Björn Felten       To: Robert Bashe       Re: MakeNL       St: Local       ------------------------------------------------------------------------------        RB> If you are good enough to patch the binary with a        RB> debugger, go right ahead.

I informed him several       months ago of this, hoping he should pass on the information to his RC's, but       I haven't seen anything in that direction -- at least not in REGCON.EUR.               If you have the "genuine" MakeNl 2.51 (dated June 16th 1992, size 48,231b)       you can apply the fix below and get it y2k-fixed. If you don't have exactly       that version, you can freq MKNL from 2:203/0 or you can get it on the web as       www.fidonet.pp.se/nodlistan/mknl.zip.              _ _o_/_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _p_a_t_c_h_._b_a_t_ _ _ _        O \       ren makenl.exe makenl       debug makenl < patch.bat > nul       goto end        e 325 eb        e 7b2 eb        e 36ca e8 9b 5d 53 50 90        e 36e6 18 0        e 9468 8b 44 0a b3 64 f6 f3 86        e 9470 c4 98 8b 5c 04 c3 e2 00 25 73 20 25 32 64 20 25        e 9480 73 20 25 30 32 64 20 25 30 32 64 3a 25 30 32 64 00        e a2cb 32        w        q              :end       ren makenl makenl.exe              --- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; sv-SE; rv:1.9.1.16) Gecko/20101125        * Origin: news://felten.yi.org (2:203/2)    |
