Would you believe if I said I add them by hand?  :-)

And, warning, some people don't like the way I push
quotes more quickly off the screen.

There's a new module of about 350 lines, including some
changes that would not be to everyone's taste
(e.g. not a friendly "you wrote", but "Rob Coles wrote").
And the "On Sunday" that I'm so proud of, is a bit of
a prat-fall, since it still says that even if you posted
4 months ago.

Plus, there's sizeable hacks to post.c and mail.c to
turn 3 large essentially identical pieces of code into
one, otherwise the 350 lines would have been (hang on,
boot Windoze, double click Calc icon) 1050 lines.

You're welcome to my changes by mail.  I would
immediately add that the most important change of all is
a change to your headers, so it's clear you're not using
Demon's std release.
