+1. put PC11 field 2 check back to m for pc text.
+2. improve 'simple' callsign checking
+3. Added the first cut of the new user/sysop filtering code. This cut works
+for spots and the syntax is:-
+
+accept/spots [<call>] [input] [<filterno>] things ..
+reject/spots [<call>] [input] [<filterno>] things ..
+
+where things are:
+ freq 0/30000 | hf | hf/cw | 6m,4m,2m
+ call G,PA,HB9
+ info iota
+ by G,PA,HB9
+ call_dxcc 61,62
+ call_itu 31
+ call_zone 14,15,16
+ by_dxcc 61,62
+ by_itu 31
+ by_zone 14,15,16
+ origin GB7,MB7
+ channel GB7DJK,GB7BAA
+
+You can simply string these together on one line one after the other and
+there is an implied 'and', you can also string together with 'or' 'not' (or
+'!') and '(' and ')' - in otherwords an arbitrary expression.
+
+You can see what you have done with:
+
+show/filter [<call>]
+
+You can clear your work with:
+
+clear/spots [<call>] [input] [<filterno>|all]
+
+Have fun and someone please write the documentation.

+1. add 0x8e to the list of characters we clobber (make xterm go into graphics
+mode).
+30Oct00=======================================================================
+1. put in new Filter::it code and tested it. Now all we have to do is write
+the user access routines (oh and the help files!).
+29Oct00=======================================================================
+1. put in echo cancelling measures into the clients. This doesn't mean you
+shouldn't take steps to prevent echoing on node links, but it may help where
+(whatever you do) it still bloody echos! This is experimental.
+2. store dxchan and mynode as callsigns (and not references) in the routing
+tables and do some checking in accessors to see if we can capture some errors.
+3. tart up the stat/chan etc display to give more useful debugging info
+28Oct00=======================================================================
+1. updated show/sun and show/moon from stuff sent by Steve Franke K9AN
+2. added show/call which queries jeifer.pineknot.com for any call in the
+world (as opposed to UALR which only does US calls). Inspired by a bit of
+perl sent to me by Steve Franke (again!) and also Angel EA7WA who gave me the
+pineknot ip address.
+3. fixed clients so that they accept -0 as a valid SSID and then strip it off
+as though they had come in without (why has this taken so long to appear? How
+long have we been running this code ??????).
+27Oct00=======================================================================
+1. alter the code in clean_old of DXMsg system to see if we get some different
+behaviour with random crashing
+26Oct00=======================================================================
+1. if there is a 'connected' file in /spider/data then the client will send
+it out to the user after connection.
+25Oct00=======================================================================
+1. fix catchup and uncatchup commands so that they accept ranges
+24Oct00=======================================================================
+1. added cty.dat from http://www.k1ea.com/cty/index.htm to the prefix_data.pl
+data file and modified create_prefix.pl accordingly.
+2. the 'no text line' messages should now propagate correctly
+3. added the dxcc, itu and cq zone numbers for announcer and origining node
+on announce filters - see the /spider/filter/ann/*.issue files for more info.
+4. you can now specify a 'user_default.pl', 'node_default.pl' and
+'in_node_default.pl' in each of the filter directories
