Ah, cool, I'll take a look at that. But for now I did
the other hack and set up a dbfawk file then generated
symlinks to my tiles (under Counties/Tiles in my maps
directory):
cd /usr/local/share/xastir/maps/Counties
cp ../../config/nwsc_ddmmyy.dbfawk countytiles.dbfawk
cd Tiles
for i in `ls *.dbf`;
do
p=$(echo ${i%.*});
ln -s ../countytiles.dbfawk ${p}.dbfawk ;
done
The wonders of bash goodness.
