Doing twit filtering in this manner forces it upon all of your downlinks as
well. A better solution is to configure twit filtering in your editor. GoldED
has this ability. Another possibility is a program that reads your message
bases and deletes the twit messages there. The big difference being that this
way passes all of the messages on to your downlinks.
