   I never said I wouldn't. I noted the request. Somewhere between a    
   magical mystical sexy fancy Linux version and support for   
   Squish/JAM/Synchronet/Wildcat/Whatever I'll add something for this.  Possibly   
   just code for the editor to add whatever user-defined kludges defined.   
      
   WV> So I was going through some areas to look at the usage of the TZUTC flag, a   
   WV> was surprised how little it is used.   
      
   You have to remember that a lot of Fido products were written during a time    
   when Echomail was really becoming popular and programmers could not    
   necessarily agree on what kludges to implement as standard. A lot of    
   software really implemented what was "required" and not proposals.   
      
   INTL and FMPT/TOPT come to mind... I'm sure theres others.
