Hi Steven,

It's been a while since I cared  but I recall Bob publishing
the full source in some sorta BASIC or other, and it might be easy enough
to modify for any new lines that are giving it pain?  A lot of messages
have changed, some only a bit, but the major changes are perhaps in terms
of upper/lower case?

Sorry, I never could bring myself to hack BASIC code again, not after '81 :-)

Still running BinkLA 1.05 (yes!) with Bink 2.60, and while it misses out on
doing the cost reports, I'm now doing far too little traffic to mind.

Cheers, Ian
