Ah Chin's wicked "opp" script. The world will never see the likes of
that again. <-: I have been looking it over and it does some really
weird and wonderful stuff... some stuff looks to be somewhat IO
specific...
The way Chin gets it to pack mail first (by happy accident or design,
i do not know) is that he actually backs up your mailbox first and the
makes a copy of the backup and then tells UQWK that the copy of the
backup is your mail -- using the -f switch in Uqwk... i THINK (not
100 possitive not having experimented with it) that is what causes it
to pack the mail first -- i know every other way i've tried it always
does news first...
There are rsh calls to mail.io.org and rlogins to nfs.io.org (to check
your disk quota and usage to make sure there's enough space).... will
take a little hacking perhaps to translate it all to interlog...
