Right.  I only see the path on the dupe since there isn't much of a path when 
it leaves here.

Exactly.  Seems not all FTN software is as capable.  I may have to take another 
look at MBSE in the future.  I like the curses interfaces but had some ethernet 
problems with it when I looked at it way back when.  Too "European" whatever 
that means.  :-)

As far as I am aware are exactly up to snuff FTN standard-wise.  Nobody has 
demonstrated otherwise.  The "problem" methinks is that not all Fido software 
can claim the same and that seems to be causing the glitch.

Bah!  No guts no glory.

Life is good,
