subject: lastus##.bbs high ascii, found it!

Hello all!


Did some experimenting and found what I needed.

Objective was to separate the user's name from everything else in the file
to plug that into other files, hence allowing max and other programs to
share the same log. Max places ascii 256 characters between user's last
name and location.  Once I found them, I was able to replace them with
cr/lf characters,  and by some batch file maneuvers get the first line into
the place I wanted it in another file.

OF course we've copied lastus##.bbs to another file before manipulating it.

Just in case anybody else wanted to know out there.


Regards,
           Richard
