Hi! Nick,

On 17 Aug 17 21:19, you wrote to Wilfred van Velzin:

With mine I didn't have to, as exported from CM II/lnx.  I edited-out the
JAM netmail, badmail & dupes areas first.  Roughly 168 areas imported
complete with the proper Linux paths!

Based on your prompting, I've just imported 3x backbone.na type files and
got 116 area descriptions.  I may go back to aiming GoldEd at the FMail
directory for area definitions, rather than the hoop-jumpimg with Areas.Bbs
& Backbone.Na, etc.  Thank you.

Cheers,
Paul.
