    Ok, I am going to commit this.  I have to note that adding the
    additional mrec packet makes the mirror stream code incompatible
    with previous versions, so both machines would have to run the
    latest code.  But I agree it is necessary and I should have done it
    as part of the original handshake code.
  
Great! I was concerned about the compatibility issue.
Any bad things that can happen when two incompatible versions communicate?
    I will add the yes/no input handling code :-)
  
Thanks :)

Regards,

 Michael
