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.
