   i don't think you're taking into account how convoluded things have become.   
   I looked at the text.ini format and i see it has some redeeming features but    
   it's not something i'd like to use as a sysop.

   there is a place if you make a place.   
      
   it's your baby though, do what you want to do. there's not a lot of people    
   who speak their mind about synchronet so i hope you take my comments under    
   consideration.   
      
   I'm pretty much retired as a sysop anyways. there's no users.  i'm just    
   mentioning these things because i've helped a few people recently and    
   they've been confused about synchronet.
