   If only you knew how much of the code is spent on ZModem, Hydra(!), online
chat, and dozens of more POTS only functions, you would say that.  :)

   But of course, now that I got it to compile OK, the first step is to extend
the calls to Winsock to handle IPv6. I might even use ready made object files
from the binkd source -- no need to convert the C code to PAS if not needed,
even if I've done it many times?

   Oh yes, there's a lot of code in it to make it work with Win95 and 98 too,
I think I'll lose that too. After all, it *is* originally a relic from last
century. A major clean-up is urgently needed, that's for sure.
