Then my fileticker tosses, it would automatic call the nodelist updater if
a diff is recieved, and after that fastlst runs and qico -n :) So i'm
automatically up to date with nodelist.

I've tested it on ISDN, and it detects fidonet calls fine, it works like:

if(CALL == FIDO)
{
    system("qico -a {at}");
}

else if(CALL == PPP)
{
    ...
}

else 
{
    system("BBS");
}

If somebody didn't know it :)

Regards,
Bo
