Digital Man wrote to poindexter FORTRAN <=-

I'm not sure if it's a problem or if traditionally access to file areas is limited to the network the AKA belongs to. If so, it might be helpful down the road to have filefix be able to limit visibility to specific file lists, akin to the way that areafix has separate backbone files with flags.

Yup. I'll add it to teh todo list. :-)

It might be easier to keep to one tickit.ini file and add a flag field? I suppose it depends on if you want filefix to be consistent with areafix.


... Faced with a choice, do both.

field? I suppose it depends on if you want filefix to be
consistent with areafix.

i've mentioned it before... yes, tickit needs groups tags like sbbsecho has so we can limit access to files areas...

allfix also has security to allow for sending and receiving per area per system so you might send and receive files in an area to one system, send only to all others, and receive only from one or two others... two flags per
system per area can easily handle this...

Log Message:
Fix issue with iniSet* functions and root section

Bug introduced in commit 0d9111a5: iniSet* functions would write key/values to the end of the list when the root section (NULL) was specified, rather than the beginning of the list.
The root section always starts at the beginning of the list/file, so I'm not sure why section_start() was doing anything other than returning 0 for the root section. It's possible this now breaks iniSortSections() in some way, so that should be retested with a file with a root section and named sections.

Fixes a bug, but one we're unlikely to have ever seen the way we use
