Only my world.c program comes with that warrantee.  I can tell you
that last night I did extensive comparisons between Squish and
Tobruk on the packets generated, and there were some minor 
differences, which I have changed on my end to be the same as
Squish, all except for one, where Squish sometimes puts in an
extraneous CR at the end of a message, for no apparent reason.
I can't think of a clean way of emulating this bug, so I'll just
live with that difference, and probably tell Scott about it.

BG> BTW, what about packing and/or fixing a corrupted message base?  

Squish utilities

BG> How did you plan on doing that, I wonder?  
                ^^^^
                
There's nothing "planned" about it, I've been running with Tobruk
for a week or so now.

BG> Or will the squish utes work in conjunction with Tobruk?

Yep, Tobruk just slots into the middle.  It does basically the
same function that "squish squash -t" does.  BFN.  Paul.
