Fip Headers

FIP Internal header fields and flags include :
	XL - this file is a redun but has errors so pls use the 2nd if there
	XS - ignore SZ contents as this is NOT the redun file
		(+and do not save) v2.29 process all dest on this sys only.
		It used by IPWHEEL on one machine to tell that on another
		to process the file for that system only.
		Hence it need only send the file once per system.
	XZ - This is a resend SO ignore redundancy checks and do NOT archive.
	XT - This file has already been sent by the secondary system
		as the primary was down (primary to archive only)
	XM - This is a msg file from Atex and IPPOST should not error if
		the logon is not found
	XP - Name of original or sending system for files transfered by ip2net
	XN - Flag for ipwheel on next system to only process destinations
		on that system. This is put on all remote files by 'ipwheel'
	XA - Flag for ipwheel on next system to process for all destinations
		except for those on the sender (as denoted by the XP field).
		This is placed manually in the USERS file to make files
		bunny hop between 3 or more systems.
	ZI ZO ZX - archive this file (ZI by ipwheel, ZX by ipxchg, ZO by ipout)
	ZH - use this Source Header field (ie field in SH) for redun replacingSN
		this is a series of 2 letter Fip Hdr fields which will make
		a unique name for redundancy. It is used where the wire service
		sends duplicate fielnames one after the other. Sometimes only
		the first part of the text is different so use $T to represent
		the first 40 chrs of text: eg ZH:SNXV$T - use the SN (filename)
		Version field from the Source Header (SH) and the first 40 chrs
		of text.
	ZR - used by ipredun to flag a ping-pong msg to ipredun on the remoteSys
	ZPC - for writer systems only, make 2nd index which is pcname in pc/que
	FBIN - this is a binary file with NO internal FIP header.
	FMAC - this is a Mac binary file complete with resource fork
