I am using the stock synchronet editor, typing /upload and uploading via ZModem in
syncterm.
I'll use Moebius or PabloDraw to edit the files, then I run em through a script that
should 1) add line feeds (just guessing this may be needed) 2) remaps any ICE
charactarers and 3) removes the SAUCE data.
What I'm doing isn't really that important though, it's not working and I'm not using any
point of reference, some people out there have it sorted out - I want to know what they
do rather than diagnose what I've done, but perhaps it's uncommon to have issues here.
Maybe using a Mac doesn't help matters if no one else encounters this, perhaps it's doing
some funny business with the file. Can only speculate...
