  • OXP: areas list = EASY!

    From August Abolins@2:221/1.58 to All on Sun Jan 17 07:47:00 2021
    Hello All!

    I recently added another Boss system to OpenXP. Its arealist
    management system delivered the list in three parts:

    URL: https://susepaste.org/71091834

    But with OpenXP's "w" option to write the message contents to a
    file, I could select each message and produce one file
    "areas.txt" that OpenXP that could then "import". From that, I
    would have the entire list of areas to select from in one
    operation.

    Furthermore, OpenXP's "select areas" function is pretty smart;
    it doesn't care on what column an areaname begins (unlike what
    Winpoint seems to need to know).

    OpenXP = +1

    What, another one :-)

    Like the snapshot, very neat and tidy.

    But with OpenXP's "w" option to write the message contents to a
    file, I could select each message and produce one file

    Never tried that myself.

    +1 to that :-))
