   Hello Wilfred,

   When I run the golded script with the quotes placed as indicated I don't get   
   the "unexpected operator" response. But... gedlnx doesn't load either.  I am   
   immediately returned to the terminal prompt.

   Now, If I load gedlnx directly (Without the golded script) golded loads and I   
   am able to create a test netmail (No echomail areas defined yet). An empty   
   golded.log file is created. I currently have a rather simple config file in   
   place as this is both a fresh install of Linux (Ubuntu) and Golded on this   
   spare machine. I also have a fresh install of SBBS also installed.   
      
   It should be noted that my prior attempt at installing/compiling Golded+ was   
   from the source code file gpsrc-115-20161221.tgz. After compiling loading   
   gedlnx did nothing. This time I compiled Golded+ using the gpl115-20161221.zip   
   file created by the running of the dist-gpl.sh script. Now, Golded+ actually   
   loads when gedlnx is run directly. In neither case does the running of the    
   golded script cause Golded (gedlnx) to load.   
      
   I've gotten used to using Golded (Win32) but I prefer running Linux rather    
   than Windows.
