After I hit the SEND button, I realised that was a stupid question.  The
utility does take the packet with the long message (renamed by squish to
*.lng) as input, and creates a .pkt (with the long message split) as output so
squish can give it another try.  Message maximum size and input/output
directories are all configurable by the user and stored in the registry.


Also after I wrote my last message, I dug out the program and tried it out
under win10.  No luck.  It was written in VB4 in 2006, and requires
vbrun300.dll to operate.  regsvr32 complains that it is not a 32 or 64 bit
.DLL and refuses to register it.  Putting the DLL in the directory with the
.Exe doesn't work either.  It runs perfectly on older OS.
