As far as Husky packages go, I tried compiling the basic packages - smapi,
fidoconf, hpt, sqpack, and msged - yesterday and they seem okay or at least
successfully compiled.  I still have to configure them but msged seems to
work fine as you can see.

As far as what I personally am interested in then the answer is I am
working on it.  :-)  I don't know i anyone, let  alone the Husky project,
would be interested in that.  Right now I am thinking about a C program
equivalent of perl's {un,}pack functions that could be called from a shell
script or commandline and outputted to a file.  That would allow for
special formatting of output such as database files, outbound Fido pkt's,
or whatever.  My latest search for an existing tool came up empty handed so
now I figure it looks as though I am going to have to do it myself if such
a thing is needed by myself.  I think it is.

Does that clear things up?

Life is good,
Maurice
