Hello Avon,

 Av> Thanks yes please, I did have some from you ages ago but it wouldn't
 Av> hurt to see them now, so thanks.

OK, I'll zip them up and put them in your inbound in a minute here.

 Av> You make a good point about pathing. I may do the same then. If I do
 Av> move I guess I need to change the group:owner to me and find a way to
 Av> add the dir I move them to the path

Yep, that is a good place for them. Everything I build myself goes into /usr/local/bin so after a time it can get busy in there.. :)

 Av> So because I compiled the first attempt of all my binaries with the
 Av> wrong pathing to my intended config file, those compiled binaries need
 Av> to be deleted and recompiled else they will always look to the wrong
 Av> location for config info - is that right?

Yes, or you can run hpt with the -c option and point it to another location..

hpt -c /some/other/directory/config toss link

You can also set a FIDOCONFIG environment variable, but it's simpler if you build the husky stuff with a good config path and filename at build time, then you never need to worry about that.

Remember, tparser is your friend when putting your config togther.

 Ttyl :-),
