     Good point, but even then the info for "local areas" are
added as "comments" to squish.cfg (since squish doesn't use the
info itself in that case).



     BTW:  I use MA'AM, but the latest copy I have doesn't handle the
Maximus 3.x msgarea.ctl file (only the Max 2.x version).  I've thought
about upgrading to Max 3.01, but really don't want to manage my msgarea.ctl
file manually.  Is a newer version of MA'AM (that handles the newer control
file structures) available somewhere (and if so where)?
