I think you will find it had similar to the FILEGATE.HDR  i.e.,

        IFDC FileGate Project Archive (c) 1994-2022
        Distributed by The IFDC FileGate Project (sm)
  For more information about the Project please visit


A sm indication is NOT a Copyright notice and you have not specified the owner
so you might want to change that.

You have to specify copyright by saying on all docs the above text namely
'is/are copyright nane, a period of such but I must concede that (c) should
be good enough - only just spotted it.

Now I will have to look at the content of FILEGATE.ZXX, nope thats ok as it
contains your original comments regarding although I updated the end date.

Like wise for the fdninfo archive contents.
For these I was just getting very tired. but still clean them up -ish.

See above comments as your name and details of (C) etc are untouched.
