   In a message on 05-09-19 Ozz Nixon said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   Hello Ozz,   
      
   Made a list of the programs I use to make PCBoard easier to me and users   
      
   > For down/uploading the packets I use a 3rd-party PPE (QWKSCAN) program   
      
   ON> Anything you disliked please speak up now... PCB 16 is slated for    
   ON> public release August this year.   
      
   I'll start with the non-PPE programmes first.   
      
   ULP, short for upload processor.   
   ZIP, UNZIP, PKZIP, PKUNZIP, doesn't need description.   
   PCOPY, an old copy program for back-ups. Needs a TSR for correct date.   
   The same TSR (YEAR2000) is needed to update the NODELIST accross the   
   New Year. This TSR is however only (i think) for OS/2 and DOS based OP's   
   MR2 v2.30 to read/reply to echo/netmail.   
      
   ON> So things that a PPE did better - let me know.   
      
   QWSCAN.PPE + QWSCAN.CFG as mentioned earlier   
   NDREADER.PPE + NDREADER.CFG to make easier reading of the msg interface.   
   ____________ PICA & PICB maybe created or are included with the pgm, as   
   ____________ well as a lot of text/info files for the user interface.   
   FLIST.PPE + FLIST.CFG   
   PWD.PPE + PASSWORD.CFG   
   DWNLOAD.PPE   
   FREQ.PPE   
   FIX.PPE + FIX.CFG   
      
   ON> Working on XModem/YModem support right now, along with MRC Chat...   
      
   OK, they work OK but a more modern modem support would be an improvement   
   as the one in the TELIX program that also can address Internet addresses   
      
      
   Regards,   
      
   Holger
