      Hello Karel!

   Yup, it's Unix, basically.

   The problem is that my Fido system runs on a Windows server (virtual machine   
   in my basement). So all the definitions/paths, also what gets automatically   
   generated (e.g. areas.bbs and areas.gld) contains c:\bbs\... style paths. I't   
   only the GoldEd that I would like to have running on my Mac.

   I could probably try to do an automatic conversion, using a script, to change   
   the path strings in areas.bbs and areas.gld. Had just hoped that the Path   
   mapping keyword in golded.cfg was an easy, elegant solution to get around   
   having to develop something myself. Oh well..   
      
   Regards
