Hey mark!

Just for fun I converted E6614010.PKT from a type 2 to a type 2.2 and ran the
result through pkt-thingy.  Here is the result;

--------------- vim commandline magic starts
:read ! ~/testing/pkt-thingy ~/testing/00010e32000c0000-575b15e0.pkt

/home/fidonet/testing/00010e32000c0000-575b15e0.pkt is a possible pkt ...
checking for pkt type ...

/home/fidonet/testing/00010e32000c0000-575b15e0.pkt: Type 2.2 pkt header
1:3603/20.0@fidonet -> 1:3634/12.0@fidonet
Number of echomail msgs in pkt = 186
--------------- vim commandline magic ends

Also I added a "tr -d '\000'" to the output lines to get rid of any nulls in
the output.  For the record they still exist in the data vector - a Type 2.2
data vector in this case - as they are required in whatever field they are
required, such as 8 of them in $5 which is used to determine the type in the
first place.  It isn't fatal but if you think the change is needed then I'll be
happy to add pkt-thingy-ng to the mix, and possibly
00010e32000c0000-575b15e0.pkt if requested.

Life is good,
Maurice
