    Is this echo still active?

    Am trying to find an overview of the JAM specification.

    I have the API's but not really a general "overview" of how each of the databases work.

    That depends on your definition of active. It is still being distributed, but traffic has been minimal for a while now.

    I have the API's but not really a general "overview" of how each of
    the databases work.

    I've done very little work on JAM databases, although there are a couple of minor issues in MBSE that I need to work on fixing. If you find any documentation or notes other than the original JAM API, please send a copy my way as well.

    I wrote something in C# using info from https://gist.github.com/barvaz2/a7375c615bc4add732bff0e3d352813c

    As long as you can do the type conversions, it's pretty straight forward.

    That was not really better than I had thought might be available. I had a squiz at the FastEcho doc 'coz I remembered some (tosser) doco explaining the file extensions used in JAM, but, that wasn't the one. Dammit

    Mark May's Pascal toys may be fun, but they're OOP style and he feigned the
    use of 'comment'. OTOH there is a master doc explaining the possible use of the OOP doovers in a pseudocode-ish style.

    FREQ 'mksm106' (with or without the .zip extension) from here. It's only
    about 220Kb compressed. Yell if it don't work.

    Cheers,
    Paul.
