   Pause at startup while scanning areas

   Hello Rj.   
      
   26 May 12 10:00, you wrote to me:   
      
    RC>>>    When I start up GoldEd on this system, it pauses for a   
    RC>>> significant amount of time while displaying "Scanning Area:" for   
    RC>>> a particular message area.   
      
    RC>    In this case, it turned out to be the area itself.   
      
      
    RC>>>   Thing is; that area isn't particularly large...   
      
    RC>    Or so I originally thought...   The area itself didn't have much in   
    RC> the way of messages in it, but the .jlr file was huge.   
      
   may be jam area files corrupts?   
      
    SD>> Tipical Golded+ "stands" on error in the config file. You may   
    SD>> look a log file (golded.log) for error.   
      
    RC>    Looking back over the log file, I don't see anything that matched   
    RC> up to when I was starting Golded up. (I am seeing other errors, which   
    RC> I plan to see if they match up to some Golded crashes I've been   
    RC> seeing...)   
      
   You may increase log output using comand line paramenters. See help:
