Spool files

After posting an article to, let's say lilly, Changi will create one command and two data files.

If called with option -U , then the files are named:

spool\lilly\C\
spool\lilly\D\
spool\lilly\D\

If not called with this option, then the file names are more UNIX style:

spool\C.lilly
spool\D.lilly
spool\D.lilly

The command file contains instructions for Chanx or uucico. One data file contains instructions for uuxqt on the remote machine. This file is only used for uucp transmission. Chanx will ignore it. The second data file contains the text of the posting.
