DOH!   I keep getting thrown off the meaning when it just says:

           Update file
           Update archive


It would work better for me if that part was:


           DIFF file
           DIFF archive


Anyway.. the dummy diffs are now in place:

We shall see what this week's files trigger.


 AA>> SO.. it looks like I have to either enable this for the FSXNET entry:

 AA>>  [x]   Delete update after processing

 MF> Nope, shouldn't have to do that.

OK.  ..If you say so. :)
