      Hello Benny!              14 Sep 17 02:03, you wrote to me:               BP> okay, its just the half of the problem imho, that makenl can make nodelist        BP> with errors in, that have to be proccesed with errflags to report it to        BP> maintainer of nodelist segment, this part should be solved in makenl imho        BP> not by external programming               Including the functionality of Errflags in makenl is something that may be        difficult to get consensus for its need.               Apart from a few corrections the main purpose of Errflgs is to adapt the        way flags are used in the nodelist, as preferred by the ZC and does not exceed        his ethics on what may be changed in a submitted segment.               For use by the first level of nodelist admins, I think Errflags should also        correct the most common errors made by admins.               Makenl mainly reports syntax error is the nodelist.               Errflgs is to be used as a preprocessor just as the are preprocessors to        clean code written in C.               You can also build a preprocessor with bash and sed and possibly some other        commands. With some effort you could convert nodes without contackt info to        tp Pvt nodes and remove irrelevant flags.               KvE>> I do not know if calling external programs in windows works, it does        KvE>> not seem to do so in the Linux version. I can live with that.               BP> maybe is it just that i use windows compile flags on linux ?               KvE>> The most current exe available from ZC2 was compiled with FPC.               BP> okay i lost where zc2 is now adays :=)               Try the Nodelist header.              Kees              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5        * Origin: As for me, all I know is that, I know nothing.
