Please say more. It should give the time from when ppp.log is created,
which should be when you dial ... hmmmm, but if you don't dial, then
how to do it? I think you'd have to modify whatever .bat you use to
load your packet driver to create ppp.log:

echo howdy! > ppp.log

.... or something like that.

connect.bat will be called when you 'Alt+D' to dial. However, if in
arachne.cfg you have:

Connect [blank]

It shouldn't ever be called. Please advise if this is not so.
Anyway, you can put any contents you like in connect.bat, maybe that's
the place for your connection method as you and Glenn created?

Right, the personal hotkeys must be edited manualy for now, I need
to fix that.

Yes, I fixed that yesterday. The reason for that is that my core can
change fonts automaticaly, however, when I added that feature, I had
all four of our fonts available at the same time (this will be in
the 'full' distro but not the 'lite' distro). However, in the lite
distro, there's only one font, and I forgot to add code to check
for that. Lot's of emails are Russian spam, and they want the
koi8-r font which looks to '..\system\R\....'

Anyway, the latest package at Glenn's site has the fix.
