I think there's a key generator up on the gigo site.

Yes...the "problem" of moving it and changing the .msg to .pkt so
GIGO can process it.

Hmmm, I use GECHO...and as I recall it looks at the .msg files and combines
them into one big .pkt file...which I don't think is what GIGO wants.

Well, I HAVE to solve the problem....I need to dump the old DOS machine.

To make it a "real" test...simply send a MOD UPD message....that
way I don't touch it...and the process is ALL robot/gigo/uucico.
