Hi g00r00,

I just noticed when listing my Fidonet areas, I get the first 48 and then the
screen pauses.  After I hit enter or C it seems to skip listing 10 bases:

   1  Fidonet Netmail                     2  ABLED
   3  AFTERSHOCK                          4  ALLFIX_FILE
   5  AMATEUR_RADIO                       6  AMIGA
   7  ANNOUNCE.024                        8  ANTI_VIRUS
   9  ASIAN_LINK                         10  AUTOMOTIVE
  11  AVIATION                           12  BAMA
[snip]
  41  ESPOMEN                            42  ESSNASA
  43  FDECHO                             44  FDN_ANNOUNCE
  45  FIDO-REQ                           46  FIDOGAZETTE
  47  FIDONET.ORG                        48  FIDOSOFT.GER
More: (Y)es, (N)o, (C)ontinueous?
  59  GOLDED                             60  GUITAR
  61  HAM                                62  HAM_TECH

Notice that it skips from 48 to 59.

For example FIDOTEST is listed two after FIDOSOFT.GER.  If I wanted to go to
this area & not knowing the number, I have to go to 48 and then press ] a few
times to find FIDOTEST.

I do have the areas sorted by network & then name:

73     FIDOGAZETTE                            1:229/664
72     FIDONET.ORG                            1:229/664
67     FIDOSOFT.GER                           1:229/664
33     FIDOSOFT.HUSKY                         1:229/664
40     FIDOTEST                               1:229/664
37     FIDO_SYSOP                             1:229/664
164    FILEGATE                               1:229/664
52     FMAIL_HELP                             1:229/664
50     FN_SYSOP                               1:229/664
59     FTSC_PUBLIC                            1:229/664
273    FUNNY                                  1:229/664
29     FUTURE4FIDO                            1:229/664
62     GENEALOGY                              1:229/664
26     GOLDED                                 1:229/664

Please let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks for all that you do!

Jay
