     Glad to hear it!

       That looked fine...

       If they are same type of nodelist, the current code will try to load the   
   most recent.  If there are different nodelists there, like Fidonet   
   (nodelist.???) and Linuxnet (linuxnet.???), then it needs to be called   
   separately for each type.

      What other nodelist files are actually present?

      If they are different domains, then yes.  I have 5 FTN nodelists for the 5   
   different domains I'm in.  For something like FamilyNet, for instance, the   
   command line I use is like this:   
      
   ftnpldb-nodelist -c $CFGFILE -f fmlylist -d fmlynet -v load    
      
      
      Now, if what you want to do is load multiple nodelists of the same type or   
   domain, that is not yet in the code but is where I'm doing with it.  The way   
   it is now, only the (presumably) most recent nodelist for a particular domain   
   is kept in the database. Where I'm going with the code;  that use case (only 1   
   nodelist of a particular domain in the database) will still be possible but it   
   will also be possible to load multiple nodelists of the same domain into the   
   database.  So one could load a couple (or a set) of nodelists for the same   
   domain, perhaps for comparison purposes.  (And/or for a web app where one   
   could look up info for any nodelist...)   
      
      I have started on that but the changes have not yet been pushed to the   
   public respositories and are certainly not far enough along to put on CPAN as   
   yet or to hatch out in the PERL File echo...
