      Hello Scott!              Tuesday December 11 2012 08:29, Scott Little wrote to Andrew Leary:               AL>> It should not be difficult to revert that change back to the        AL>> former behavior.               SL> That'd be good, thanks.

If you do not specify them, the       defaults are CPYRIGHT.TXT, EPILOG.TXT, and PROLOG.TXT in your Master       directory. If you do not want a file included, specify a non-existent       filename. This, coupled with the change I just made, should allow you the       flexibility to do what you want to do.              Regards,              Andrew              ---        * Origin: Bits & Bytes BBS * V.Everything! * 860/535-4284 (1:320/119)    |
