|    Makenl and bad segments...    |

      Hello Benny!              02 Jan 15 13:49, you wrote to Ward Dossche:               BP> my wish for 2015 is to see makenl does not create invalid nodelists,        BP> errflags is good, but that programing should have being added to makenl        BP> long time ago               I have looked at making corrections for general errors, that have an easy        algorithm to correct in a preprocessor like e.g. ERRFLAGS.               Errors like there was in R25 in the previous nodelist, where a comma was        missing at the beginning of the line.               If you follow the nodelist over a long period of time you will find more        errors, that are correctable by a simple rule.               The general reaction to inclusion is, that a higher level C should not make        any changes to the segments offered for inclusion.               In a way this makes sense. The lower level C knows, that he submits a segment        with errors, or ignores the results of the testrun, that is available to him.               ERRFLAGS makes some cosmetic changes and can enforce the allowed flags for        the Zone or lower level. It cannot be used on a full nodelist, where there        are different rules on the use of flags.              Kees              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5        * Origin: As for me, all I know is that, I know nothing.
