   O.K., so a point is a user who logs on as any other users do.   
   But the point user can do stuff maybe like acting as a temporary SysOp,   
   when the SysOp is away for a while?

   I haven't used SemPoint recently, it may be if I read SemPoint Help I   
   would know some things about a point operator.   
   I know nothing about how FIDO works, except how to connect to a FIDO   
   BBS.
