Presenting "Quick Silver", the ARexx File Request Server!

Greetings  from  The  Hotel  California,  located in Austin Texas.  You are
being  served  by  Quick  Silver,  a  FidoNet  File Request Server, written
entierly in ARexx, and compiled with the "Rexx Plus Compiler" by The Dineen

to you from Quick Silver.

  requested and the number of bytes sent to each requesting node.

o FIRST TIME LETTER for callers, what you are reading now.

o NODELIST SUPPORT via the traplist.library by Martin J Laubach.

o Update Request support.  Request files only if they are before or after a
  certain date.
