   Hello Nick!

Have a look at my sig.

I did delete everything form my golded.cfg and recreated it with -INSTALL, Origin shows and so does tearline, but origin is take from goldareas.txt from mystic.

Noty sure how to have golded read the messagebase directly which I know it's JAM but JAMPATH pointing to D:\BBS\MYSTIC\msgs does not load any message base. So my solution here is to copy/paste all AREADEFs to golded.cfg, dumb but is wat works for me ATM.

Cheers
