    MJ> Can GoldEd create message areas ? or do I need to create them using a   
    MJ> BBS first before I can edit them with GoldEd ?   
      
    AC> Other people have answered this already, but something to note is   
    AC> GoldED won't create subdirectories for you.    
    AC> Suppose you have this in GOLDED.CFG:   
    AC> AreaDef JAMAREA "My JAM echo" 0 echo JAM c:\msg\jam\jamarea   
    AC> If either c:\msg or c:\msg\jam don't exist, GoldED won't create them,   
    AC> and will possibly crash with a terse error. Worse, it does this after   
    AC> you save the message you just wrote.    
    AC> Or at least that's been my experience.   
      
   This is good to know.   
      
    AC> Concievably there's now a config setting to enable automatic   
    AC> subdirectory creation. Or it would be nice if there was.    
    MJ> (I am using GoldED/386 3.00.Beta3).   
      
    AC> If my history is correct that's circa 1997.

   Yes, I will bear this in mind.
