- + Improved UU-encoding a zillion times.... it wasn't me that made this crap!
- + Improved UU-decoding speed around 10 times (looks like that here).
- This was again because I did not write the original UU-decoding
- function, which I now did instead. Why do people not understand things
- like that!!
- + New keyword: NoSound
- + The X, find fido/internet will now find all Internet homepages as well
-
- ! Cured the weird 30 lines and UU-decode problem.
