Hey August!

Change cmd-line to bash script and you have it.  Also a few additional
function files to facillitate the filteration issues.  I'd probably do a QWK
<-> MSG that way if QWK was a desirable format, which of course it isn't.

> How do you mark a message for a reply later?

Use the line number of the msg and use that in a reply vector and then once
editted write it to a formatted reply file that can be uploaded to the
mothership, "Little Mikey's Brain" in this case.  If you see this reply then
you have confirmation that it works.

> Take a look at OpenXP and give it a spin!

Sure.  However if it cannot handle utf-8 msg posting then it won't get very
far here.
