NAME

       crashlist - Compile a CrashMail nodelist

SYNOPSIS

       crashlist dir

DESCRIPTION

       Builds  an  index for the nodelists in the specified directory (or in the current directory if no directory is specified). To find out what
       nodelists to read, CrashList uses a file called cmnodelist.prefs in the nodelist directory. The format of this file is as follows:

       <nodelist name> [<default zone>]

       As the name of the nodelist, you can either specify the full name of the nodelist or just the base name of the nodelist	(without  .xxx	at
       the  end).  If you just specify the base name, CrashList will use the latest nodelist with that name (selected by date, not the extension).
       A default zone can be used for regional nodelists without a Zone line. All lines beginning  with  a  semicolon  are  treated  as  comments.
       Pointlists should be in BinkleyTerm format and should be specified after the real nodelists.
