    Hello Craig!

    Hmmm. Peter Karlsson is a name I know. I have several utilities

    Yes it's afaik. Peter did also port til Crashmail II tosser to
    OS/2, he's still on fidonet, he's point at Viking City or
    Singularity, sorry can't remember.

    JAM and *.MSG capable Fidonet tosser CrashMail II is basically a more portable version of CrashMail, a tosser for Amiga computers. Users of the old Amiga version will probably find some things familiar while some features are gone such as the ARexx port (for obvious reasons!) and the GUI configuration
    editor. The only feature that CrashMail II has and the old CrashMail hasn't is support for JAM messagebases.

    living in Canada at the time...

    Once wrote to Mikael Karlsson in Linkoping, Sweden. He was the author of 'TinyTerm'. S. Boberg used hangout there too. =:o

    "TinyTerm" is for DOS or? (AFAIR isn't Mikael a Amiga user).

    It was about a 10Kb machine code prg., hence the name. I used it on the A1000 because of it's small memory size!

    Sorry, I was referring to GoldED Plus (v1.1.4.7 Peter Karlsson). I haven't used it yet. MultiMail seems to work well from the Konsole! :)

    I use multimail by my self too, because I run a QWK-capable BBS.. I used
    to run Maximus/Linux, but the development stoped, and many things didn't
    work, so I switched over to Synchronet.

    yep GoldED was not a FTN editor on amiga :-)

    but the most powerfull editor ever maked on amiga that have content highlighting and xpk compressing so it could load a compressed prefs file and save it again compressed, its like to do edit a gz file on linux whitout thinking its compressed :-)

    if i have forgot something about GoldED its becurse i used CygnusED more :-)

    The most wierd of it, is that it was Johan Billing personally which ported it. So I wonder why he didn't do any "guisniss" about it.. Maybe fidonet didn't interest he anymore.

    Indeed.
