   Hey mark!   
      
   Just for fun I converted E6614010.PKT from a type 2 to a type 2.2 and ran the   
   result through pkt-thingy.  Here is the result;   
      
   --------------- vim commandline magic starts   
   :read ! ~/testing/pkt-thingy ~/testing/00010e32000c0000-575b15e0.pkt   
      
   /home/fidonet/testing/00010e32000c0000-575b15e0.pkt is a possible pkt ...   
   checking for pkt type ...   
      
   /home/fidonet/testing/00010e32000c0000-575b15e0.pkt: Type 2.2 pkt header   
   1:3603/20.0@fidonet -> 1:3634/12.0@fidonet   
   Number of echomail msgs in pkt = 186   
   --------------- vim commandline magic ends   
      
   Also I added a "tr -d '\000'" to the output lines to get rid of any nulls in   
   the output.  For the record they still exist in the data vector - a Type 2.2   
   data vector in this case - as they are required in whatever field they are   
   required, such as 8 of them in $5 which is used to determine the type in the   
   first place.  It isn't fatal but if you think the change is needed then I'll   
   be happy to add pkt-thingy-ng to the mix, and possibly 00010e320   
   0c0000-575b15e0.pkt if requested.   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
