is your golded reading the tosser config?

FWIW: my area definitions are expressed in this manner and look a lot 
different...

==== Begin "1-3634-12.areas"  ====
# areas file used with husky software for 1:3634/12

# Fidonet Backbone Areas
EchoArea    10th_amd            /home/myuser/fido/msgBase/fido/backbone/1/10th_amd              -d "10th Amendment Echo"    -b jam -a 1:3634/12.73 -g B -p 1100 -dupeCheck move -dupeHistory 1100 -sbkeepall 1:3634/12

==== End "1-3634-12.areas" ====


my GoldEd is also configured to read the fidoconfig format for my HPT 
installation... in there i have only three areas defined right before the above 
include file... those areas are defined like this...


==== Begin "config"  ====
# FidoConfig generated by fidoInst for bash by Zano
Version 0.14

[...]

## mail areas
NetMailArea NetMailArea      /home/myuser/fido/msgBase/netmail                  
         -b jam
BadArea     Badarea          /home/myuser/fido/msgBase/bad                      
         -b jam
DupeArea    DupeArea         /home/myuser/fido/msgBase/dupe                     
         -b jam  -p 1

Include           /home/myuser/fido/etc/1-3634-12.areas
==== End "config" ====


i've never used the "areadef" format... only this one as depicted above which 
has ~250 areas defined...
