This seems to me a bit much running a fresh copy of squish.cfg every time
timEd is run, in my mail.cmd file I run squish, then timEd, as in the
timEd.cfg there is a place for where the squish.cfg is kept.

mail.cmd:

/*REXX*/
call rxfuncadd 'sysloadfuncs','rexxutil','sysloadfuncs'
call sysloadfuncs

'copy f:\adept\mailer\outbound_mail\A.1.17.23.1.fidonet h:\mail\inbound'
'erase f:\adept\mailer\outbound_mail\A.1.17.23.1.fidonet'
'erase f:\adept\mailer\outbound_mail\H.1.17.23.1.fidonet'
'h:'
'cd mail\inbound'
'rename A.1.17.23.1.fidonet 0000ffff.mo8'
'rename i:\ter500\in\A.1.17.23.1.fidonet 0000ffff.mo8'
'rename i:\ter500\in\0000ffff.mo8 0000ffff.mo7'
'rename i:\ter500\in\0000ffff.mo7 0000ffff.mo6'
'cd\'
'cd squish'
'Squishp in out squash link -fechotoss.log '
'cd\timed'
'timedp'
'cd\squish'
'Squishp in out squash link -fechotoss.log '
'sqpackp h:\echo\*.sqd'
'erase echotoss.log'
'copy h:\mail\outbound\00000000.* f:\adept\mailer\password'
'erase h:\mail\outbound\00000000.*'
'copy h:\mail\outbound\00110017.* f:\adept\mailer\password'
'erase h:\mail\outbound\00110017.*'
'f:'
'cd adept'
'GateKpr.Exe GateKpr.Ctl A LP'
'cd mailer\password'
'erase 00110017.*'
'cd adept'
'exit'

From Timed.cfg:

;  Path/Name of squishmail config file. The -P switch in squish.cfg is ;
recognized and used.
;

Squishcfg h:\squish\squish.cfg

Or did this get lost in the upgrades?  Or are things that much diifferent
in W32 and *nix?  Just a thought to simplify things a bit.

Hope this helps.  Keep us posted.

We are a fine board trying to make it better.
