I was told that the fuctionality had already been implemented in hptkill.

Usage: hptkill [options] [areaNameMask ...]
Options:          -c config-file - specify alternate config file
          -1 - send unsubscribe message to the first link only
          -n - don't send unsubscribe messages
          -a - send unsubscribe messages to all subscribed links
          -d - delete area from config file
          -s - save (don't erase) message & dupe bases
          -f file - read areas list from file in addition to args
          -f -    - read areas list from stdin in addition to args
          -p - find & kill passthrough echoareas with <=1 links
          -pp - same as -p including paused links
          -y - find & kill ALL echoareas with <=1 links
          -yp - same as -y including paused links
          -o num - kill passthrough areas with dupebases older than
        'num' days
          -O num - same as -o but kill areas without dupebases
          -l file - with -o/-O write out file with list of areas
        without dupebases
          -C - create empty dupebase if it doesn't exist

Default settings:
 -  send unsubscribe message only to subcribed links
 -  leave config unchanged
 -  erase message & dupe bases

Michael
