Introduction :
--------------
Some Tosser have problems with the contents of some fido .pkt-files :
1. large messages (Foozle)
2. large .pkt-files (low memory systems)
3. long kludges (Mailmanager)
4. long area names (Foozle)
5. long message IDs (Mailmanager)
PatchPKT solves most of the problems.

What does it do ?
-----------------
- .pkt-files can be splitted to have a certain maximum size
- Messages can be splitted to have a certain maximum size
- Kludges can be removed by using AmigaDOS pattern
- Kludges can be cutted to a certain length
- Message ID will be corrected by using the address of the origin line
- Area names can be renamed by using a renaming list
Format of renaming list :
original name <Space(s)> shorted name
...
...
e.g.:
ALT.DEUTSCHE.BUNDESBAHN.KOTZ.KOTZ.KOTZ UUCP-A.D.B.K.K.KOTZ
REC.SPORTS.PRO-WRESTLING UUCP-R.S.P.WRESTLING
============================================================================
Known problems :
----------------
- PatchPKT crashes with corrupted .pkt-files.
- PatchPKT TOTALLY loads the given .pkt-file into memory
If not possible, the .pkt-file will be renamed into xxxxxx.outofmem
