Hello Martin,

 MF> This is how it all works .....

 MF> When you install a new nodelist or a new pointlist for the very first

Yes..  I had read your wonderful guide sec 3.2.   That is what helped me get
the NL installed/compiled.

BTW, your guide refers to "All other fields should be left at their default
settings" ..but after I started to experiment with adjustments, I nolonger had
a record of those default settings to undo what may have worked before.  How
about including some screenshots on your guide for some of the Options/*

That was very helpful.  Thank you.  But do I have to do the moving/copying each
 and every time subsequent nodelists arrive?
