DM>> What exactly did you want me to do with TinyPoint?

 PE>> 1. Make it use PQWK220

 DM>  Easy :-)

 PE>> 2. Make it use zip/unzip (and include the executables)

 DM>  DOS and / or OS/2 ?
 
DOS only.  Telix doesn't run under OS/2, and anyway, the user
can figure out esoteric configurations for themselves. 

 PE>> 3. Make sure PKTJOIN is called with *.PKT TEMP or similar.

 DM>  Obviously in the PQWK220 docs....

But not in the TinyPoint batch file apparently...  Which is
another thing you might want to add, something that copies
the incoming packets into a temporary directory for backup.

 PE>> 4. The docs could be cleaned up too.

 DM>  TinyPoint Docs ?

Yeah.  I don't think all the stuff about fascist sysops is
relevant anymore, and Brenton probably doesn't want new
points to send him mail either.  I think the program has
matured to a "serious" state now.

 PE>> Thanks + bye.  Paul.

 DM>  Don't hold your breath...

I won't!  :-)  BFN.  Paul.
