Gee I'm sure glad this "Filtering Program" was posted. What does it filter? Why is source code posted without any indication of its function? Tom.

As quoted from <882@hoqax.UUCP> by twb@hoqax.UUCP (BEATTIE): +--------------- | Gee I'm sure glad this "Filtering Program" was posted. | What does it filter? +--------------- As far as I can figure out, it's an attempt at menu security for a COBOL A/P package of some kind. (As such it is doomed to failure.) +--------------- | Why is source code posted without any indication of its function? +--------------- In this case, because (a) it arrived without any indication of its function; (b) there was no useable From:, Path:, or Reply-To:, and (c) I am not supposed to reject sources.
