 NA> Why would you need to use a script to do a simple action?

Its actually quite handy when you have multiple networks with multiple
passwords and addresses.  It basically pulls up a menu that allows me to poll
each hub individually or I can poll all uplinks etc, start an areafix/filefix
email that inserts the hub address, then password into the subject, then
brings you directly into the body.  From there you type your commands. It also
Merges a nodelists just because it was handy while I was setting up some other
things. A little setup for less time having to think about/look up things
before hand.

Ultimately, even tho the menu had a command to switch to the netmail area, it
couldn't due to a lack of access due to a change I made in error.  So it just
defaulted to the area I was in.  

 NA> Rotate your secret asap and just don't run that piece of junk anymore.

Hah..  I'll stick with my script.  Bugs happen.. this one just happened to be
public lol.  

 NA> P.S. What is that BASH echotag about?
 NA> Bash as a shell? Bash as a scripting language? Bash as to work hard at

Its the Bash Shell Echo on Fidonet.
