successive ENTERs.
3. A new method for configuring the directory associated with a spool device has been
implemented. Instead of using the full path you may use an asterisk followed by the Comet
directory name:
Spool = SP1,*SPL; SPL is the directory name. It's path is specified in the DIRECTORIES section
4. Copyfile is now able to copy files from a CometAnywhere workstation to a drive or UNC path
not served by the file server.
5. XAP was pausing too long every time it wrote a large packet to the tcp/ip stack. This time
was shortened making xap web pages perform much better.

during Comet startup.
