   Since someone asked about this over in WINSnet, I thought I would also post   
   the same thing here.  This is what was fixed/added/replaced in the 3.05   
   release series of wcQWKnet:   
      
   3.05            (+) Added KEEPREP semaphore file to be created in the DATA   
                   directory.  This can be a 0-byte file and if it is present,   
                   then any REP packets that are to be sent will not be sent,   
                   so you will have to manually delete the packet.  However,   
                   if the FTP status is anything other than a successful trans-   
                   fer, the code this file invokes will automatically run even   
                   though the KEEPREP file does not exist.   
      
                   (+) Added the KEEPQWK semaphore file to be created in the   
                   DATA directory.  This file serves the same purpose as the   
                   KEEPREP file but for QWK packets.   
      
                   (***) For those of you that are keeping count, this marks   
                   the 16th update/feature addition/enhancement for wcQWKnet   
                   so far :)   
      
   3.05f1 (Fix 1)  (!) There was a bug in the active semaphore removal routine   
                   that was preventing it from removing the file when the   
                   program was done.  That should be fixed in this beta version   
                   by utilizing the /RESETONLY command on the command line.   
                   Note that when using this command/parameter, no config   
                   filename needs to be specified.  Thanks to Matt Munson for   
                   confirming that this was indeed a bug that cropped up in   
                   the initial 3.05 release.   
      
   3.05f2 (Fix 2)  (+) Added command usage screen that displays when no   
                   parameters are given or the active semaphore file exists   
      
   ... Platinum Xpress & Wildcat!..... Nice!!!!
