Years ago I wrote a FTN program that analyzed PR1ME INFORMATION files and recommended file types and modulos. Problem with it was that it required a reasonably in-depth understanding of the data structures, and they changed in some releases. When HASH.HELP became robust enough I quit using my program as I couldn't justify the development time/effort. Instead I wrote a front-end which generated paragraphs consisting primarily of HASH.HELP %filename% statements. The paragraphs included COMO statements, and the final statement ran a program to interpret the output from the HASH.HELP and execute an appropriate RESIZE command. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
