Greetings All!


In an effort to make things a little more neat in my configs specifically
areas_* files I have them setup like this..

EchoAreaDefaults -b jam -a 1:340/202 -sbkeepAll -g F -dupeCheck move
-dupehistory 11 -$m 5000 1:340/400

EchoArea 10TH_AMD /home/fido/msgbase/fido/10th_amd -d "10th Amendment Echo"
1:340/202.1


The above is how I would like areafix autocreate to write to the file but this
is how it ends up doing it....



EchoArea fidosoft.husky /home/fido/ftn/msgbase/fido/fidosoft.husky -a 1:340/202
-b Jam -p 3650 -dupeCheck move -dupeHistory 14 -d "disc.on Husky" -g F
1:340/202.1


so is there a way to have areafix use the defaults for the network and write
the first format above to the areas file?

I just changed the node addys above so dont worry about the particular data in
the examples just how written..
