   Well, the fidonet technology isn't very much multi user/processing safe. In   
   the past i saw golded counting down waiting for access to a locked squish   
   messagebase.

   Fidonet isn't that time critical. Sometimes it helps a lot to review written   
   messages some minutes later. I found typos of the type "oh no, my did my brain   
   controlled my hands to write that?". One of my favorites atm is acutal for   
   actual. For me this delay results into higher quality mails. Oh and i found   
   another one, see above, my hands were faster again, "my did my" should be "why   
   did my". I really need to slow down.

   I'm running golded via a scriptfile and touch the semaphores after golded   
   quits. I think there is no option to control the behavior of the semaphore   
   creation time.   
      
   But you could use EXTERNUTIL to start a script that touches the semaphores.   
   That way you could hit an F Key like F5 to force a scan.   
      
   Regards
