- ViewPkt 2.00
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- This is a little program that shows you information about a FidoNet standard
- mail packet. Just enter "ViewPkt <pktname>", and you'll see information on
- the packet such as time and date of its creation, the origin address, the
- destination address and some technical information such as the bundler
- product code that created the packet, and its capability word.
-
- This is v2.00, which has two options new to v1.00: MSG and TXT. Specifying
- the MSG option will cause the packet to be scanned from top to bottom, and
- all message headers displayed. Specifying the TXT option in addition will
- cause the message text to be displayed as well. In other words, you can
- dump an entire packet using this program, and redirection to a file also
- works.
-
- This program is intended as a tool for debugging or just exploring. The
- latter is why this program was written. I started exploring the FidoNet
- technology, and while studying the FTN documents, wrote code, and this
- is what I got. This has been fun for me, and I hope it's fun for you too!
