+1. Try to nail down incoming PC92s that attempt to change the type of $myalias
+   or $mycall. 
+2. Do some housekeeping with the startup and finish debugging to make the 
+   order of messaging more logical. Also disable some messaging caused by 
+   other errors/circumstances causing various object handles disappearing.  
+3. Make sure that $mycall and $myalias are upper case (and moan about it if
+   they aren't.

+1. I am aware that there are windows nodes out there on mojo (brave, impetuous 
+   that you are) and wget is not an easy option to download badip files. So, 
+   through the power of mojo I give you the new 'download' command. As it 
+   stands at the moment, it will download a file from a webserver and place
+   it in /spider/local_data. If it downloads successfully, it will overwrite
+   any file with that name in /spider/local_data. Needless to say this is a 
+   sysop only command.

+   would be an obvious use. But it can also be used to download spot, USDB 
+   and other data as well. If you do use it then you will still need to 
+   do a spawn_cmd in crontab for the conversion programs, but that too is 
+   going to change.

+1. Fix odd (and old) regression dx command (line ending 59+++) '++' being the 
+   culprit.
+2. Allow multiple commands on one line when separated with the 2 character 
+   string '\n' (sigh). 
+3. Move a few init things about on startup so that more parameters are 
+   scriptable. 
+4. Put some debug comments before loading various caches (that might take a
+   longgggg time) and then tell people how long each cache load took. This
+   should reduce the worry that something is "wrong" when there is a delay
+   (such as searching for announces). 
 06Mar23=======================================================================
 1. Fix filter error reporting, including incrementing concurrent error count 
    if there are actually any detected parse errors.
 2. Fix warnings on difft.
 3. Add the origin of any incoming SP if it is emailed to the recipient.
+4. Oops I accidently restored one path of the node being disconnected that I
+   fixed below (because of changes to filtering). 
 04Mar23=======================================================================
 1. Fixed regression caused by too many command errors in (startup) script
    files. This is caused by much stricter checking of commands entered both
