 BM> My question is, how do you add more nodelists from different FTN networks.

OK.. I saw my error and it the explaination was right in the readme file. My
eyes are getting old.. lol!

 ec> var nodelistPaths = [

 ec> Keeping it on one line isn't important, though.

OK.. I'm anal about neatness though.  Each nodelist has it's own line. :)

That it did.

One thing I did see that it didn't like looking outside it's own folder for the
nodelists.  I put a normal path to replace the /sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv and although it
compiled.... it didn't show a damn thing.  I had to copy over all the nodelists
into the /sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv folder. 

I'm sure I'll think of things as that day gets closer. 

Thanks again...
