Short: 1.00b: Fido Node tosser with really good Areafix and nodelist support
Author: schmitzj@trier.fh-rpl.de (Juergen Schmitz)
Uploader: schmitzj@trier.fh-rpl.de (Juergen Schmitz)
Type: comm/fido
Requires OS2.0 or better
Since points use better mail editors than nodes, nodes started using
"fake points" to get the comfort of this editors. Maybe this worked
fine but it's only a hack and was complicated.
**********************************************************************
Bugfix of version 1.00!
sometimes version 1.00 didn't work with OS 2.0 because of an really
ugly bug in the ReadArgs() handling function :-(
Tosser didn't work with CPUs that had its vector tables starting from
address 0 :-(
Thanks to Hinnerk Fleddermann for his reports and trys!
**********************************************************************
The Fido Mailtosser System JS_TOSS
====================================
JS_TOSS was developed on the fact that there was nothing as it before.
It is simply a tosser no mail editor and has no message base. This has
simple reasons: There are already good mail editors which have their
message base. The other problem is that mailbox programs have also
their own message base which are completely different from the once of
the mail editors. So all we need is a tosser that allows the sysop to
use any editor he wants, has full node support to make life easier,
like areafix and routing.
So JS_TOSS was born. This diagram shows the exact position of JS_TOSS
in you node system:
