    AA> How do I create an area manually?   
      
   From OpenXP's main screen, press the "s" key, which brings up the     
   "Special" configuration screen but please be *VERY* careful what you     
   do in there as it's dead easy to mess things up!   
      
   Press the "w" key which brings up the New Area dialogue. Your uplink's     
   address should already be in the "Server" field, so just press      
   to go to the "Newsgroup" field. Assuming that you haven't changed the     
   default Area prefix of /FIDO/ in "Edit/Servers/Edit/Robots", enter     
   /FIDO/ (e.g. /FIDO/BINKD) in the "Newsgroup" field and then     
   press . Then,  your way through the rest of the settings     
   and you should see your new area. To get out of the "Special"     
   configuration, press the "s" key.
