probably... first i've heard of it...

personally speaking, though, i'd rather have one central config to maintain
that everything else reads from... on my main system (OS/2) i run timed and
have it read everything from my fastecho config... on one of my winwhatever
points, timed reads from the fmail config... i forget what i had to do for
timed on another of my points that is running dbridge... i think that one is a
manual thing or i have something set up for like an areas.bbs file but it is
little used... of course some things have to be in a special config for the
reader (eg: address, user name, etc) but it would be nice to see the addresses
also taken from the external configs...

i had noted something in a changelog about hpt and thought that the husky stuff 
would be supported directly but, as previously noted, i haven't found anything
in the available documentation... i don't think there's anything in the
"unused" directory that would pertain to the husky stuff, either... when i look 
at config.c, i don't see anything for any other configurations other than
squish... at the minimum i need JAM support for all areas... i don't read C/C++ 
as well as i used to and i don't write C/C++ at all other than very simple
fixes that i may discover needing to be done...
