   Hello Jeff!

I don't use that script or anything to run...

But the behavior you describe matches what happens when you don't have a
golded.cfg created or if you do  golded can't find it

I use:

./golded @S A -C~/fido/golded/goldedMSG.cfg

I compile using the standard make files included, sudo make,  and then I move
the created binaries to a ~/fido/golded/bin/ directory and run it from there.


I create a BASH alias to run this, so all I do at the CLI is golded... and off
it goes...

Do you have a defined golded.cfg defined? Location?

At a minimum this needs:

USERNAME Rick Christian
ADDRESS 1:135/377
AREADEF NETMAIL "Netmail" 0 Net Opus /home/xx/fido/netmail/

Also take not that if you use VERY WIDE terminals golded will CRASH seg fault
and/or not run as well.

A bug report offers a fix for that, at least for reading, which I've added to
my versions, but the internal editor still seg faults  on wide terminals.

The screenfuls of warnings, while "techincally" not a problem for now.. portend
to issues later when the "deprecated" methods used are removed from gcc.

Rick
