   	src/sbbs3/atcodes.cpp   
   Log Message:   
   Add codes: FFILES, FBYTES, FCOST, and FTIME, with new format parameters   
      
   Inspired by PCBoards's FFILES and FBYTES (see issue #940), these codes   
   report details of the user's current batch download queue. I completed the set   
   by adding FCOST and FTIME.   
      
   An important new feature introduced with these codes are new (optional)   
   byte-count and time-duration specific format parameters. e.g. while FBYTES   
   returns the total size of all files in the batch download queue in bytes,   
   FBYTES:K will return the total size in kibibytes. Similarly, FTIME will   
   return the estimated number of minutes to download the queue while FTIME:S   
   will return the estimated number of seconds.   
      
   There are currently 8 formats of time-durations and 5 formats of byte-count   
   representations. I suspect I'll be adjusting these and adding more before   
   finalizing and documenting on the wiki.   
      
   I plan to give more codes this treatment and remove many of the new duration   
   codes I recently added since this feature means we don't need a separate   
   uniquely-named code for each output format: it was a real pain to come up with   
   good or consistent, but short names, and manage them all.
