    What you are asking may be quite complicated. Makenl is designed to work   
    in a weekly cycle. With some trickery you can make a daily list, but that   
    disturbs the working directories of the weeklies as you have found.   
      
    But I am not qualified to give a real answer, I would have to study the   
    source code, I will leave that to those whoe are more familear with the   
    internals of makenl, or you can do it yourself as well.   
      
    My solution is to keep the setup as you have it, with different working   
    directories for weeklies and dailies. Create a differnt directory where   
    the uploads are stored and copy the latest files from this uplodas directory   
    to the directory where makenl expects them. Perform this copy just prior to   
    running makenl.   
      
    Your only worry is, cleaning this master upload directory.   
      
    I have no need for using makenl, but I have a test environment, where I   
    use the above procedure for making a daily Nodelist, a Wednesday Zone list   
    and a Friday Nodelist/Nodediff.
