I had a look at this just now. It would appear that using the
"append" mode of MsgWriteMsg is just not possible with a JAM
message base because of file format limitations. In which case, maybe
support for the append mode should be simply removed from SMAPI entirely
for consistency? I suppose append mode only really made sense on old DOS
systems where available memory meant writing to a messagebase in multiple
passes was more practical.
None of the other Husky programs I looked at used the append mode. So it
would make more sense to fix Msged so it doesn't use it. Actually I think
Tobias said he'd done this already, but I haven't seen any evidence yet!
