Hey Mindsurfer!

Not necessarily. I ended up making two bash scripts, one using 'wget' to
download the QWK packet, and then another using 'ftp' to upload the REP packet.

I figure if I telnet in to the BBS, I may as well just stay there and read the
messages (lol?). However, if I want to read messages outside of the BBS, I
shouldn't need to login to it via telnet and go through the whole login
process, just to download the QWK packet and logoff. ;)

To each their own, of course.

Regards,
Nick
