+11May00=======================================================================
+1. fixed looping in Msg.pm (at last)
+10May00=======================================================================
+1. wrote a cross between 'tail -f' and grepdbg so that you can watch the
+debug files for particular strings and only have them print out. 
+05May00=======================================================================
+1. rewrote parts of Msg.pm and client.c so that the messages no longer use
+a length word at the front of each one. They are simply strings of characters
+separated by a \n. No binary characters are allowed (they are encoded as %nn)
+a la HTTP. This hopefully cures Arnold's problem and also make it more
+secure anyway. It also paves the way for the ax25/ip multicast client.
+30Apr00=======================================================================
+1. put some extra checks and balances in to message send routine in Msg.pm to
+see if I can prevent the error seen by Arnold (which I think is only likely to
+appear in heavily loaded sites).
+25Apr00=======================================================================
+1. Changed reply so that you can reply to more than one address privately
+31Mar00=======================================================================
+1. fixed nnn-mmm in kill (erase/delete) msgs so that mmm is also deleted and
+not just nnn -> mmm-1.
+2. Added an autosplit to message importing so that messages are split
+automagically into bits if the filename used in the import directory starts
+with "split". This will add a [1/5] type string on the the end of the subject. 
+3. dedupe more aggressively on the text of Spots so that only the 1st 27 chars
+of text are considered (as opposed to the whole lot).
+30Mar00=======================================================================
+1. altered client.pl connect code so that it doesn't falsely recognise 
+/spider/src/client as a 'client' instruction.
 28Mar00=======================================================================
 1. Added buffering to client 
 2. Fixed LOGIN so that you can login with an arbitrary callsign
