     For external area configuration, the general syntax for the
     AREAFILE keyword is:

          AREAFILE <programname> [path or filename(s)] [-options]

        Available options:

 -NoChk       Normally GoldED will check the areafile timestamps when
              starting up, and recompile the configuration if a file was
              changed. If this option is given for any AREAFILE, those
              areafiles will not  be checked. This can  be useful in cases
              like TosScan,  GEcho,  IMail  and  several others which "touch"
              their files every time they run.


 -S<sortspec> If you are *not* using the global AREALISTSORT keyword
              for sorting  all the  areas, you  can sort  the areas  of
              each AREAFILE  separately.  See the  AREALISTSORT  keyword
              for the definition of <sortspec>.


     If no path  is specified, the  appropriate environment variable  or
     the AREAPATH is used to find the files.
