INTRODUCTION
WNode is a new nodelist compiler, extremely fast and reliable.
Compiled files take little space on disk and allow a quick
searching for all nodelist fields.
It is released with structures and a Turbo Pascal unit which
takes care of all low-level nodelist procedures and makes
implementation in old and new programs very easy.

I would like to thank all beta testers for their help and
contribution in WNode development: Ugo Uggetti, Andrea Mennini,

CONFIGURATION
WNode takes the information about its configuration from a file
called WNODE.CTL: please read WNODE.CTL carefully while
configuring WNode.
If present, WNode will read WMAIL.PRM or WEDIT.PRM to find the
destination path for compiled files, otherwise it will put them
in the directory specified in WNODE.CTL.
WNode supports FrontDoor point nodelist for 4D point addressig.
Currently, the programs who support WNode nodelist files are:
- WMail 2.1 or above
- WEdit 2.0 or above
