While it's a PITA, it's the only way to be able to use the AREASEP and some
other keywords to actually separate your areas by network or by whatever you
define with the AREALISTSORT keyword.

JAMPATH is for the location of your netmail.jam and echomail.jam files that
are read between golded and your tosser. That has really nothing to do with
what you're looking for. Those semaphore files (which you may eventually want
to utilize) tell the tosser what areas you've actually wrote messages and/or
netmails in so that it only scans those areas, rather than scanning all areas
every time.

golded\manuals\gold_ref.txt will be your new best friend. :)

For the easiest way, take a look at the AREAFILE keyword. In your case, you
may want to try:

AREAFILE AREASBBS d:\path\to\areas.bbs

However, you may not like this method as I don't believe it adds the area
descriptions. There may be other ways, though.. I just don't know them. I've
always used AREADEF, AREASEP, AREALISTSORT, etc. in combination to make things
look a lot better.

Hope that helps!

Regards,
Nick
