I’ve started writing some Python functions that read in WWIVnet packets. So far, so good. I can read in basic WWIV Network packets, identify their headers and their payload. The python functions can handle multiple message packets, but currently don’t do anything besides displaying the network record header and the raw message payload. I haven’t written anything to handle short or mangled packets yet. I’m basically just writing code blocks to be able to process the network packets, perhaps manipulate them, write or rewrite network packets. The next step would be to actually process the payloads as well. For now, I probably need more sample packets, but where do I get any. Hmmm…
