Gee, did you program it or what? Have I hit a sensitive spot?

OK, I'll do that. BTW, the remark about effiency is redundant. I already
downloaded Taylor UUCP sources, I don't trust someelse's code. Problem
is, I'm out of spare time. This could take a while.

| uucp:src/include/config.h:#define MAXFILES  1000 /* Max # of files in any news or spool directory */

Just what I thought, poor programming.

Cool. I searched the Web for this device and nothing came up. Are you
sure it's available for us mere mortals?

					Share and enjoy,
