Hello All!   
      
   Example on make a PointList with several regions:   
      
   1. incoming segments in Fakenet format   
   2. incoming segments in Boss format   
      
   4 nodelist program in use:   
     makenl for linux   
     makenl for Dos   
     updcheck for dos   
     pntlcrt for dos   
     plmakecl for dos.   
      
   Dosemu install and setup is to done for a linux system.   
      
   So to start is use linux makenl 3.2.9 for fakenet make.   
   \..\makenl\point\   
     net/host ctl's   
     region's ctl's   
     makenl linux bin   
      
   Under Dosemu is it like this   
   d:\..\makenl\point\   
      makenl.exe 3.2.7   
      mkXXXX.ctl   
      updcheck   
      \pntlst\   
      + the names that makenl and updcheck work with   
      pntlcvrt   
      \pntzXz   
       plmakecl   
         \rsegs\   
      
   Then is a segment coming ind to fido indbound directory and when script for   
   checking if new segment is got in is then move the recieved segment to   
   \makenl\point\inbound\   
   then is updcheck been started and check the segments and working on correcting   
   some lines to be complete and then changed and recompile for pntlcvrt and   
   plmakecl.   
   If there is some region(s) to self make be own .ctl files is updcheck start   
   this and maybe make new fakene and Boss format segment of regions.   
   Then is pntlcvrt do some maybe splitning and fake -> Boss format and move   
   segment to plmakecl run of new segment in \rsegs.   
   the work is all done by dosemu, and last is that plmakecl is make the   
   pointlist ready by compile the segment to one big file and tou dos bat file   
   end with copy the pointlist in Boss format to some pointlist work directory to   
   make dosemu ends and let the rest final work be done by linux, like zipping   
   the pointlist to a .z(julian day) file and add a file_id.diz to it too, and   
   then is it to hatch the point list out to bbs and nodes.   
      
     Take care,   
               Gert
