Hello Wilfred,

On Sunday August 20 2023 15:08, you wrote to me:

I was thinking about allowing the user to define his own compression method. A
method that is not in the list (yet). There is an option "Custom" but I am
unsure how that works. It may be usefull in the unlikely eventy an new
compression method pops up that is ideal for use in Fidonet. :)

I am in favour of throwing out no longer used stuff. KISS..


Cheers, Michiel
