    Sounds like you can still use it with a BBS that doesn't have SSH or FTP QWK downloading. You would download the QWK packet the "old fashioned way" -- calling the BBS up in your terminal program and grabbing one -- and then fire this new QWK reader up to read the downloaded packet.

    Very cool indeed. I started playing with it - my first thought was that
    it wouldn't take much Synchronet code to make it into a full FTN point.
    SlyPoint?

    I'm not entirely sure what that would mean; but, although my BBS is on a few FTN networks, I think I'm still not familiar with all the features of a FTN style network.
