I wanted to make sure it was off... :)

When I used HPT a couple years ago, I had everything in one large config
file, that was probably around 1000 lines or so. That was a pain...

This time, I'm splitting them up, but I'm trying to follow the examples.
(config, linkes, areas, etc). It seems to make sense that way. Right now,
I've got 4 different feeds for fidonet, and one downlink, for example. I
would think that could be tough to do with dividing it by system...

I don't know. I'm not an expert, by any means. I'll let you know how it goes
when I get to the point of running tparser on my config... ;)
