+24Oct01=======================================================================
+1. added (un)set/register, show/registered commands which when a 'set/var
+$main::reqreg = 1' is done in the startup script will require users to 
+be 'registered' in order for them to have 'write' access to the node. Non-
+registered users will only be allowed to TALK or SEND PRIVATE to the cluster
+sysop callsign.
+2. Added password interrogation to the ExtMsg connections. If a user comes
+in via telnet and this is being done with the internal listener and a pass-
+word has been set for that user - he will be asked for it. You can force 
+a password interrogation (for ALL users) with a 'set/var $main::passwdreq = 1'
+in the node's startup script. It is anticipated that if you are using
+registration you will also issue passwords to those registered users.
+3. set/password has been changed so that users already with passwords can 
+change them.

+2. redo prefix table using latest cty.dat
+14Oct01=======================================================================
+1. Add the shortform SH/ST like display to sh/user <call> to make it more
+AK1A compatible (G0RDI+G4PDQ pace).
+12Oct01=======================================================================
+1. make del nnn delete messages again (fix system Aliases file)
+2. substr the subject so that the dup works for stuff coming back via AK1A

+4. Add expunge feature to kill. Deleting messages now marks a msg for 
+deletion two days hence. To have the old behaviour, do a 'kill exp' or use
+the standard alias "expunge". This will cause the message to be deleted at
+the next queue message cycle.
+5. Put in prototype echo handling for direct connections using ExtMsg and
+Listeners.pm.
+6. fix msgs to g1tlh-2 (as opposed to g1tlh)
