Accepted as standard amongst Sysops... you know, the people who actually take
the time to download, install and use the software that a Fido developer
writes. Features of that software find a good niche purpose or they don't.

Good for you, you can copy and paste, completely oblivious to what I wrote.

Reread about non-technical folk in the FTSC.., and study prior messages from
Michiel carefully. Yes, notwithstanding some of the more banal and inane logic
arguements, even I think some of that is a little cringe-worthy. But someone
like him who is THAT logical and technical is example of what runs the FTSC.
