Guys.
I have a _huge_ request - when you post a file, it is advisable
to describe it.
All it takes is 3 lines: What it is, what it does, and its name or address.
The last one is optional. ;)
Well, it’s more pleasant for yourself when there is a file description at the station.
I somehow did everything manually, but I’m tired. And now this is how boring it all
looks.

I agree, and it is advisable to introduce a rule, for posting a file without a description
give it to the owner - [*].
With respect, Igor

Yeah. I was daydreaming. Who will be eager to throw something then?

For those who take this process seriously, and not anyhow.... Personally, I'm already
sick of receiving announcements from the UUE-bot where instead of a file description there is his own name, and the file list with such "descriptions" doesn't look great, I don't have time
to launch every one that comes program in order to find out what it is, therefore for some time now I have simply added such a file to my BBS, i.e. the final
goal is lost - to bring the whole thing to the Sinclairists (and the users of my BBS are Sinclairists
and not nostalgic writers).
In addition, a person who has not taken the trouble to at least minimally prepare
the file sent throughout the country clearly demonstrates his attitude and to
the sent program and to its recipients.

2All: It wouldn’t be a bad idea to write your accompanying words not in the letter with
the first section of the code, but in the preliminary letter (zero section).
Pleasant connections.

Amazing... Will the need to fill file_id.diz discourage you from bothering? I
have words... Ah! I realized that it’s easier to make an intro than to type two lines into a file. Or
you don’t know how to start editing a new file in DOS Navigator?
With all kinds of regards and wishes.
Igor.
