+handled.
+4. fix the long callsign checking
+22Jan02=======================================================================
+1. limit spot dupe checking to first 12 characters
+13Jan02=======================================================================

+11Jan02=======================================================================
+1. Make M$ TCP connx blocking again, sigh...

+Earth people, this will take no longer than 15 of your Earth seconds...
+10Jan02=======================================================================
+1. set SO_LINGER = 0 to try to prevent the system sending data on a closing
+socket. This MAY help some of the hanging problems (but I am now beginning
+to doubt this).
+2. do the same on the C client (which means DON'T FORGET to make it).
+3. set no nagling on the output from the node.
+4. set KEEPALIVE on TCP connections for both the node and C Client (you will
+have to make the C client again) and you will need to restart.

+know how.

+6. Add a new sysop cmd 'save' which will save the output of any command (or
+list of commands in "<cmd>") to a file.
+7. Add a new command "echo" which echos its argument to the screen (useful
+for titling in the save command above.
+8. Increase interval between logins causing for/opernam to 60 days (from 30)
++ a random factor between 0 and 9.
+9. Added Italian translation of Messages from Luca IT9ROT (thank you
+very much).
+10. Added the /<cmd> feature (as in talk) to execute a cmd whilst typing a
+message, then enhanced it so that if you do //sh/dx (for instance) it will
+put the result into the message (as well as show it to you).
+11. Added the // feature to talk as well.
+02Jan02=======================================================================
+1. updated the copyright dates
+2. modernised and extended the Windows instructions a bit.

+1. allow sh/dx on 1000/4000 (or 1000-4000).
+2. merge sh/dx and sh/dxcc commands (Alias sh/dxcc to sh/dx dxcc). You can
+now do things like 'sh/dxcc oq2 by w dxcc'.
+20Dec01=======================================================================
+1. Fix 'not' in filtering
+2. alter default max spots to 100 and the no of WWV to 5
+17Dec01=======================================================================
+1. added new satellite stuff from Steve K9AN. Fixed upper/lower problem
+in convkeps.pl.
+2. enhanced load/keps to accept a message no. This will create a new keps
+file from a msg (hopefully containing 2 Line Nasa keps) and then load - all
+in one step. Added load/keps to the help files
+3. Updated spanish Messages
+4. Improve wcy command from Stephan DK8LV's input

+poluting the nodes table. Maybe this will make things slightly more stable.
+3. Take off rspf checks on announces and spots and allow the dupe filters
+to take the strain.
+4. Move the dupe checking AFTER the input filtering for announces and spots.
+5. Changed the checking of PC19/21 that it doesn't alter the wrong node
+6. Alter the storage of messages so that illegal characters are stored as '.'
+in an attempt to stop such messages from hanging.
