Hello Apam,

When I first setup Magicka I was running as a point so I was sending
files and tics to magicka and ticproc was working well for me.

Now I am receiving files and I need to send them on to linked nodes so
htick is doing that but I'm wondering now how to import those new
arrivals into the BBS here.

Perhaps if ticproc had an option to read the tics, import the files and
leave the tic alone I could run ticproc first to import the new files and
then run htick to move the files into place and do what it needs to do
right after I run ticproc?

Perhaps I could do a mass import also after getting new files.

The advantage to having the tics available is for files that don't
contain a file_id.diz so we can still get the description from the Desc
or LDesc lines in the tic.

I'm still a few days away from getting going on the file areas.. I'm just
trying to figure out how to proceed.

 Ttyl :-),
