Jim,

...And now I'm bottom posting. :-D

Would you mind giving me a link to Mike's page / repo ?

I stumbled onto this when I decided to have a crack at fixing //who. 
Silly me.

That would be fantastic! I can expose my server to the outside world if 
you want to try connecting to that, as well.

Oh? Can you expand on that? I've used netcat very successfully with it, 
as long as you remember to not use a source port ( -p ), and ALT-F12 
(hard reset) between runs, it works well. Other areas of QLink seem to 
work just fine, and connecting to ShadowM's server allows me to use // 
commands as well.

Tod.
