Hi! Phil,

Show us yer legs... ermm, logs.  ;-)

Frankly it's been so l-o-n-g since I last used that function that when I saw 
your question I thought that the operation was impossible.  Thanks for 
reminding me.

Here's what the manual says on the matter...

   -----8<-----C-U-T--H-E-R-E----->8-----
     FESetup -IE<File> [-O]

        This switch  is provided  in  order to  simplify the  operation  of
    import the EchoMail area description from a standard fidonet echo  area
    descriptions called Echolist (FIDONET.NA). You  can do the same  opera-
    tion internally, by  means of  the "Import" DropDown-menu.  If used  in
    conjunction with the -O  switch, the already-existent description  pre-
    sents in FastEcho.cfg will be automatically overwritten. I.E.  assuming
    that you  want  automatic import  in  your FastEcho  configuration  the
    description present  in standard  file FIDONET.NA  overwriting all  the
    existing descriptions, you have to layout the following command:

     FESetup -IEFIDONET.NA -O

    Note that there isn't -any space- between the -IE switch and the  file-
    name FIDONET.NA (that's mandatory).
   -----8<-----C-U-T--H-E-R-E----->8-----

What's -not- happening, Phil?

Cheers,
Paul.
