I have spent the last 2 months getting my Amiga 2000 working again
after being in storage for the last 10+ years.  Luckily enough all
my old source code is still intact so I've decided to release it
for the first time.

This is the second program I am releasing with source.  Written back
in 1994, this 'new' version is nothing other than a rebuild with my
new contact details and inclusion of source code.

Qwk2Pkt compiles with the DICE compiler.
Swap.asm assembles with Charlie Gibbs' a68k assembler.

If you find this program useful I would be very greatful for a small
donation, say, £2 made via PayPal to mail@bret-mcgee.me.uk.  I'm not
planning to make any money but simply to cover the cost of getting my
poor A2000 up and running again.

See below for the original readme notes:

Qwk2Pkt 1.2
===========

Qwk2Pkt converts .QWK off-line mail packets into FidoNet compatible .PKT
files.  Needs MESSAGES.DAT and CONTROL.DAT.  For BBS QWK doors that place
names in uppercase, there is an option to let you correct the names (with
support for names like McGee, MacDonald etc).

Requires Kickstart 2.04 or better to run.  Should run an a 1MB, 68000 based
machine.  Tested with Drip and MungWall.

Numerous bug fixes and new features since version 1.0
