    This part creates the text...

    msginfo=format("%-25.25s %-25.25s %-25.25s %s"
    ,hdr.subject
    ,hdr.from
    ,hdr.to
    ,date
    );

    This part creates the link to the message...

    writeln("0" + msginfo + "\tsub:"
    + field[1] + ":" + i + "\t"
    + system.host_name + "\t"
    + GOPHER_PORT
    );


    To add column seperators to the msginfo line I would include something

    "%-25.25s + " :: " + %-25.25s + " :: " + %-25.25s + " :: " + %s"

    Well let's see...

    Nope, that didn't work. I got 'empty directory' with that alteration.
    Thank goodness for comment markers (-:

    If you were of a mind to add something like that (maybe colons are the
    problem...) What would you use?

    Is there a shorter varible dor DATE. I mean shorter as in output.

    04/01/06 Sat 00:16:00 (hmmm not much shorter is it?)
