    From Boondock@1:103/705 to Rob Swindell@VERT on Mon Jun 7 18:16:47 2021
    Hi Rob,

    I see that the FTS-5001 describes the PING functionality and it supported well in SBBS. I did read somewhere that the PING and TRACE were supposed to be slit. I was wondering whether you were going to include that any time?

    All the best

    "slit"? SBBSecho supports PING and I'll take a look at adding TRACE again someday (it was non-trivial last time I looked). A feature request at https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/issues
    would insure it doesn't get forgotten.

    LOL. Slit works even though I meant split.

    Ok. I will if I can find the discussion and paste from there.
