   I think he was referring to the fact that you use wildcards in your *fix   
   requests for the Husky tools (ie: [+]*/-* to subscribe to all echos available,   
   rather than D'Bridge and SBBSecho using [+]ALL/-ALL). Both ways probably match   
   other software, but since Mark was used to DB and possibly SBBSecho, it was a   
   different scenario for him specifically.   
      
   If it took you two or three days to search for and find the "misc" directory   
   under HPT's (and HTICK's for that matter) root directory, then I suspect   
   PEBCAK rather than the program itself. Where would you expect it to be   
   otherwise?   
      
   And now to try to bring us back to the original topic in the DBRIDGE echo, It   
   was requested that DB have a help screen for users trying to access Areafix,   
   and now it does as of the latest update. I'd call that a success!
