I already wrote a little DCL script that crawls the HECnet and collects all the INFO.TXT files that it can find (so far there are eight, counting mine) and if enough people adopt this format I'll write another little script to parse out the node information. The format is pretty straight forward - you can just type out CODA::INFO.TXT and see for yourself. Bob
