    I wish Neil would release the source code, I would love a chance to work with it.

    but maybe not reading amiganet anymore

    Yes, that would work as well. I would even be happy with anything new. His system says it is running Zeus 1.8 where the rest of us are stuck at 1.7.

    But does 1.8 fix some of the anoying bugs that have been reported, os has
    Neil just given up... Its been years since it looked like any thing was
    done.

    There are quite a few of those that drive me mad on a daily basis. The new message waiting issue is one that causes me the most grief.

    I wish he would release the code. I would gladly love to go through it and
    see if I could fix some of the issues.

    That will also be tied onto the FTN mail processor, thinking area's/message
    are bad.

    I'm slowly getting reacquainted with the system, and trying to remember how things work. I'm yet to find out how to have zeus remove files from it's database, when theyare no longer on the hd.

    Is it a rexx script or util?

    Or at least give access to the code to fix some of these bugs. CNet is
    getting worked on, but I've never liked the user side of things with that software. The same goes with Ami/x.

    No, i'm refering to the new wiating mail in a netmail area, which freezes
    the system.

    FileManager (which is in the bin folder) with the EXISTS switch will do that for you.

    I agree, I have never been a C-Net fan, but it is being worked on but I
    don't think the code has been released.

    If Neil released the code for Zeus, at least we would have a few people who could help out fixing it's issues and adding stuff to it.

    Oh, I've not ran into that bug.

    Found it, and have used that keyword. Thanks. Also found a bug with the
    swicth to not ask for each file to be removed. I'm accessing the system remotly, so can't gove the precise error.

    To sum it up, it just scrolls "cant find file" up the screen and the only
    way to exit was to reboot the machine. #)(

    I agree, I have never been a C-Net fan, but it is being worked on but I don't think the code has been released.

    At least there is visable work being done. Zeus looks like it's in a ICU
    ward with tubes keeping the last few systems going.

    If Neil released the code for Zeus, at least we would have a few people who could help out fixing it's issues and adding stuff to it.

    Even better would be a GIT Hub release, so that those that want to help can contribute back.
