<p>It had occurred to me that ordering the node file by area and
then node within area might make it more directly useful to
someone looking at it while trouble-shooting a local area, but
I've never felt strongly enough about the matter to come down on
it one way or the other.</p>
<p>Besides, my SETNODE rewrite will display them in either other, an
example:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt><font size="4">@g sn:setnD2.EXE.0<br>

<p>The former <font size="4"><tt>SHOW</tt></font> is <font
size="4"><tt>DEC</tt></font> <font size="4"><tt>SETNOD</tt></font>
compatible syntax. The latter parse is a result of the
multi-section keyword tables I build for <font size="4"><tt>COMND%</tt></font>.
This also allows question mark and escape recognition, which is
kind of whizzy, yet useless for programming and probably <font
size="4"><tt>NFT</tt></font>.<br>

Looks good. Just to pick your noodle, maybe filter it through
sort first, equivalent of *sort -V -t " " -k 4* ?
<br>

<br>
It is sorted. Currently by name.
<br>
Do you want it sorted some other way?
<br>
It's just one more line of Datatrieve, so it's super trivial.

Copied from GALAH, the copy at DINGO doesn't have

Fixed permissions - I thought I had protected them
against writing/not reading. Blame finger memory not
engaging with my brain.
