  version of the famous "Msged" Fidonet message reader and editor, and of
  Smapi 2.0.0, a new version of the Squish Message API that now also supports
  the JAM message format. See below for a list of new features and caveats

Important Note for Unix Users of the Husky Project Software:

  Msged 6.0 requires Smapi 2.0.  However, the last stable releases of all
  other Husky programs presently require Smapi 1.6.4.  Before trying to
  compile and install Smapi 2.0 and Msged 6.0, please read the file
  DEPENDENCIES found in the Huskybse package.  It contains a section on how
  to run both versions of Smapi simultaneously.  Or wait until new versions
  of hpt etc. are released that will work with Smapi 2.0.

New Features of Msged/TE 6.0 as compared to Msged/TE 05 include:

- Support for the JAM message base format.

- Updated CHRS kludge support to FSP 1013. New support for Codepages
  865,866,KOI8-R,ISO 8859-5. Msged now fully supports the Russian and
  Ukrainian languages. This requires some configuration changes even
  for Non-Russian users.  Be sure to read the Changes section in
  whatsnew.txt.
- Support for many new flags and the FLAGS kludge.
- Support for the TZUTC kludge.

- Support for Husky "Fidoconfig" type tosser configuration file.
- Support for a GEcho 1.20 type tosser configuration file.

- Menu interface for file import/export.

- Msged can find files case-insensitively on a UNIX file system.
- Auto-recognition of the terminal window size on UNIX.

Thank you for your attention and support.

Tobias Ernst.
