   I had forgotten about that. Now I always use lower case so as not to get   
   caught by that issue somewhere or other down the line.

   Yep, I have found all of max/squish/sqafix to work quite nicely 32   
   bit wise. On the amd64 I seem to have some problems. I did telnet   
   into my own max board a couple of times but never did get it going   
   remotely so I could go live with it.   
      
   I miss the 'b' command from max's message menu, I don't think any   
   other package has that kind of functionality.   
      
   Having the free time is tough to do I know. I've been staying   
   away from the muffin echo b/c I don't want BS coding BBS stuff   
   when he should be studying/resting. We'll get there I'm sure   
   when the time is right.
