NODELOOK - Version 1.01

Nodelook is a basic nodelist browser for use with Version 7
nodelists. It was written to explore the version 7 nodelist
structure, and is not very fancy, so do not expect too much. It
is, however, fairly usefull, and since there is so little that
seems to work with version 7 nodelists, we decided to send it
out.
It expects NODEX.DAT & NODEX.IDX to be in the current area.
The modem flags as shown have not been filled in; it just shows
the 16 flag bits as MDM1-16.
There also is a bug at the very end of the nodelist, so if
you want to look up the final net in Africa, you are out of
luck. One of these days, we will get arround to figuring out
what is happening. (Actually, we know what happens, we do not
know WHAT is suppose to happen; we wrote it by parsing other
people's code, as we could not find any docs worth a damn).
I do not really know if it needs any instructions ... run
it on the nodelist area. ESCAPE backs up a step, ENTER goes to
the next step, arrows move the cursor.
Lastly, NODELBW.EXE is a special version for those of you
with mono screens. The colours used can be pretty hard to see in
various emulation modes.
