In a way, yes, we are fortunate that the code is available, and from when I 
used it, it only needed some "cosmetic" fixing and possibly a few small 
improvements, but was other wise capable of handling dial-up connections 
without problems.

Would seem it only is a partial clone of ifcico, maybe it might be an idea to 
implement/add the "control interface" of Qico into ifcico, which already 
supports most if not all the required FidoNet transfer protocols.

That maybe ...

Must remember to download it.
