This is just getting rid of compress detect and uncompress, display asc/ans
files in the qwk packet and various info, possibility of reply, directory
cleaning, etc...
There are still more things I can get rid of: I have seen several
indications sent to the screen which are not strictly necessary and force
me to include the crt unit.

I should have a bit more time this week, so I'm going to work a bit on it too.
At the minimum, I want to test it with a qwk packet under linux and
document the "new" version before releasing it :-)
And I guess there is probably anewer version of FPC, but I can't be bothered :-)

Cheers

Next round is to

Francois
