Hi, Paul.

PE> PE> Hmmmm.  I'll have to revamp my great new archiver to handle that.

PE> FM> No need to change on my account, I just expected to see SA2, SA3, (I'd

PE> FM> What does your "great new archiver" do?

PE> Creates the *.SU0 etc files for Binkley.  When are you going to use proper

Yes, the disk is there now all I need is the time and the inclination.
Like, why do I want/need to "know about all this stuff"? All I want to
do is write and receive messages (and the occasional file) with minimum
effort, and the current setup does that just fine - with a few irregular
hiccups which I agree could be addressed with different software, but is
it worth it?

PE> PE> FM> Do you add onto previous files?

PE> PE> Not currently it would seem.

PE> FM> But you must,

PE> You're right.  I've no idea what, if anything, I was thinking when I wrote

PE> FM> if I haven't missed anything! I mean, add on to as yet
PE> FM> uncollected files.

PE> Yeah.

PE> FM> I'm not convinced, Int'l Pascal only had 21 today - mostly local, a
PE> FM> couple of zone 1 and a few zone 2. Maybe everyone's on hols.

PE> The fact that you're getting any zone 1 stuff is great, it means you're

Oh? What's that?
