I have most of the 1.10 files on my BBS (617-275-5834, 14.4, v.32 bis), but
none of the graphics stuff is there.  I'm running TAGBBS software, and am not
connected to Fidonet (or any other nets).  I don't have any upload ratio
requirements, and the files are available to first-time callers.  I can't
tell where you are located from your address; I'm in Massachusetts.

Because that's the way Unix does it.

Use the -c option.
