Hi Vincent,

Sure he can. Every "normal" nodelist or segment ends with that character, and always has! It's even documented in: http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-0005.003
The Z2 nodelists I get from Ward also end with that character...

So I think something else is going on.

There is no need to.

There is no need to.


Bye, Wilfred.
