1. Main.cfg in the in0 dir - You are probably running a vfido or some other
program while you are in the in0 directory instead of the vadv directory. In
your batch files make sure you are in the vadv directory when you run any vadv
program.

2. Bbsfiles.txt - Not yet. I'll add a file trigger to do it in the next
version.

3. You can use VPost to write a message from the command line.
