   Hmmm.. I have added these, not within an IF...ENDIF section, since my golded   
   config itself is very minimal. Piece by piece I'm working on it, till it's   
   right.    
      
   When I added those three configs, and pointed them to absolute paths to them,   
   starting up golded resulted it in pausing at a black screen. Hitting a key got   
   it to show golded itself. But F1 still shows it can't find the /sbbs/golded.gel   
   file.   
      
    ML> when they are included in the "IF PLUS" [...] "ELSE" [...] "ENDIF" stanza   
    ML> at the beginning of the file... specifically, when they are in the PLUS   
    ML> section which causes golded to cry that they are not recognized   
    ML> configuration verbs...    
      
   I managed to get it working after hacking at it enough. using INCLUDE   
   goldhelp.cfg instead of GOLDHELP goldhelp.cfg.. heh   
      
    ER>>>> What was totally missed is why the nodelist portion of golded just   
    ER>>>> completely fails. I provide the NodePath and Nodelist   
    ER>>>> nodelist.999, and it can't use them.   
      
    MB>>> Now that I think about it, did you compile the nodelist?   
      
    MB>>> $ gnlnx -C   
      
    ER>> Aha! I... Didn't realize this was a thing. I guess I was just hoping   
    ER>> the days of compiling nodelists was gone after all these years, but   
    ER>> apparently not, not for ged+ anyway. Nor I guess for Husky Tools   
    ER>> project similarly. heh   
      
    ML> this nodelist compiling thing is something that i need to look into,   
    ML> too... my golded crashes when i try to write netmails...   
      
   I had a similar problem. My problem in specific was, I was using tmux, and   
   yakuake with a very wide display.    
   I opened up konsole to an 80x25 terminal and use it just fine. It's not very...   
   Scalable.. Without issues it seems. :)
