- I have my own archie client using packet driver and Trumpet TCP. I can very
- easily compile a version for LWP4D if you are interested. My client is a
- little different to the standard one published which won't speak to
- archie.au . Mine appears to work to the USA archie site as well, but I have
- not tested it with all sites. I have also added a filter for a domain
- suffix so that one can limit searches to a particular country if one so
- desires too. (oh... another thing, it doesn't use config.tel, but rather
- passes parameters through command line or environment variables).
