No I am not, but figure if such stuff arrived at 21:1/100 then I should
likely have something in place for 1/100 nodes etc.?

Yep thought so.

 AI> Yes, fileboxes take out all the guesswork. I like them.

Same here :)

But that can't stop someone from just trying though eh? So perhaps best to
set things up?

 AI> The routefile keyword is not needed for file areas, just routing files.

Yep understood thanks :)

I have had no reason to so far but then I have not used tools that even allow
for this option.

 AI>  PH> Thanks for the reply. :)
 AI> 
 AI> Any old time.. :)
