Unfortunatly, our cries for help fall on deaf ears.  I have been flat out told 
by several of the TG 'groupies' (i.e. beta team) that that program simply
would be 'too hard' to write.  Then I'm wondering why the hell FE2TG was
written. Wouldn't be too hard to modify that to work with AREAS.BBS or
SQUISH.CFG.

For that reason and a few others, I dropped TG and am happily running
Maximus/2.

Later,
Sean
