Okay I got it!!!  Also took the liberty of downloading the specs and the
archived JAM libs.  Where are the tar.gz versions?  ;-)

I haven't looked at any of these yet and it might be a couple of days
before that happens, but I already know that some conversion is going to
happen to at least make the archives more Linux friendly.  I am also
betting the documentation will need to be filtered to rid them of
DOS-think.  The bonus to that is that it reduces file sizes without any
compression and furthermore if later gzipped even greater savings are
achieved.  Too bad Fido never considered things like this given that
ridding DOS-think from messages reduces them by more or less 60% without
compression.  That might make my additional two bytes on the MSGID a more
attractive sell.  Heh, heh.

I'd like to see if something like the above can be achieved with the JAM
format or if there might have to be a major overhaul to eliminate DOS-think
from it.  What do you think?  Worth looking into?

Life is good,
Maurice
