 For those who run LinFBB 7.05f on the amprnet, I have a patch for it
 that I released last night. All it does is adds a (Q)uit command which
 parallels the existing (B)ye command. Considering with FlexNet and Xnet,
 and other softwares leaning more towards Quit than Bye for an "exit
 application" command, this patch will make FBB more user friendly. 
In the old days, everyone had an FBB BBS (or maybe RLI or 4RE) and used B for Bye,
except the Germans who had "DIEBOX" where B meant "Bell (alert the
sysop)"!
Always fun.
