Hi Deon,

 DG> Its messy, so I had a mix of files in inbound, badtic 
 DG> and inbound/uplink/tmp...

Yeah, that does sound like a mess.  I know in Fidonet that long filenames are
strongly discouraged.  I've had a filebone in Fido for about 19 years now
(CH-WARE) and I couldn't tell you how many times there's been issues with long
filenames.

You did spur me to codify how to hatch files here in Micronet to avoid those
issues and I thank you for that. :)

The "8.3 filenames" toggle in MBSE was put in to avoid that mess.  Much like the
"Force BinkP/1.0" was put in because of buggy BinkP implementations like in
Internet Rex.

Later,
Sean
