   They/it ought to work fine with a left double-click in a Total Commander   
   panel.  ;)   
      
   I could bundle all of the help-type files I have here in my Radius dir, if   
   you'd like.  Even a PDF that I created once from who-knows-what source.

   Bummer.  It got confused maybe with some old binary config file or an errant   
   INI file.[shrug]

   Don't they ever.  I love my semaphore files in Radius.  When my Win98SE &   
   Fidonet setup was on a real PC, I used to control its operation from my Puppy   
   Linux PC through semaphores (mirroring my old BATch scripts with new bash   
   scripts).  I could cause a Radius re-start remotely, even.  8-)

   I dunno know either.  Though, I do remember having to use an override for it   
   for one particular node.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
