i think you're thinking of the digital distortion's message lister... slyedit 
has three start up modes, DCT, ICE or RANDOM... the message lister thing is 
something separate and i don't find any indication of it in Max's setup... the 
slyedit stuff is there and the docs do reference the DDML but that's all i can 
find about it... AFAIK, slyedit came with sbbs when Max first pulled it off the 
repo and compiled it... i'm not aware of anything special done to acquire it...
