Right. And what I originally said was that the definition of "Stored Messages" really doesn't belong in any new FTS-1 replacement document(s) - if that were to happen.
The "Stored Message" (so-called .msg file) format is good to be defined in a public document for software inter-operability on the systems that use it (still), but it's certainly not a requirement for FTN communication. --- SBBSecho 3.06-Linux * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)
