    Except yours thinks everyone is in zone 2....

    Very true. I have zero FTN peering with Z3, so my view of world
    is limited but still a bit wider than the original post.

    Or Z1, apparently, since all of the above quoted links are Z1..
    starting with my own. :(

    Actually, you are right again. There is a bug in husky hpttree utility. It treats 2D PATH addresses as if they were belonging to your default/home zone number. The improvement could be that hpttree would parse out the real zone number from the origin line.

    I proposed a long time ago that hpttree should also check the nodelist. :)

    I did not follow that discussion. What would be the benefit of the nodelist knowledge for hpttree?

    I proposed a long time ago the way how hpttree can create a graph using SEENBYs and not just PATH. Collect all nodes from SEENBY for all PATHs with depth one - those are direct links. Collect all nodes from SEENBY with PATH depth two and subtract list of nodes known at PATH depth one. Repeat for longer paths.

    If the tool is designed to create a tree from the PATH kludges and there are no zones in the PATH kludges then the tool should not display zones at all.

    A seperate tool to verify a 2D aka against the nodelist may be usefull in this and other cases.

    Agreed. If the zones weren't there nobody would have said anything. However, if zones are going to be displayed, they should be displayed correctly.

    Yes. That is why I filter the output of hpttree with sed before posting. 🙂
