Bucko, you are literlly my go-to resource for all things C64 BBS related,
and I appreciate the support you've given me on Discord :)

How do you turn off the p00/s00 extensions? I tried exporting Image3
files to SD via DirMaster, and used "Bulk Rename Utility" app (WIN) and
couldn't get Image past some of the config screens. I'd love to use
Image3 as it's pretty actively supported. I'm using Jim Brain's uIEC/SD
device now -- it was my birthday present, along with a RetroTink!
