Hi Rick,

No. But it's a bit of a "chain" to setup.

Whenever there are .tic files received by my mailer htick is run like this:

  .../htick -c .../husky.config toss

In my husky.config I have the following lines:

  FileArea NODEDIFZ [FileAreaDir]/nodedifz -g FidoNet -d "Nodediffs in zip format" -a 2:280/464 2:.../...
[...]
  # === Fidonet Worldwide Nodelist ===
  Nodelist        NODELIST
  DiffUpdate      [FileAreaDir]/nodedifz/NODEDIFF
  NodelistFormat  Standard
  DefaultZone     2
[...]
  ExecOnFile  NODEDIFZ  NODEDIFF.Z??  [basedir]/bin/nlupdate.sh

The nlupdate.sh script contains these lines:

  .../nlupd -c .../husky.config -q
[...]
  .../gnlnx -C

('...' are paths on my system)


Bye, Wilfred.
