  Uggh! YAROXBBS (Yet another release of XBBS). Sandy isn't there anyway
  you can automate the updates to XBBS. Like useing Larry Walls patch
  and come out with incremental updates to XBBS. Don't get me wrong I 
  like XBBS, but downloading it at random intervals (exspecially three
  days before the next release) is killing me.

  One the same subject how does one go about makeing incremental patches
  to a large project with patch? i.e. How did they automate the patching
  of 'elm' with so many patches comeing in etc. Has anyone done script
  files to do this or in the makefile?

  BTW The new zip menu you added to the files section is great!
