     This keyword  allows you  to define  additional menu  items for the
     arealist scanning menus (Alt-S or Alt-P).

     The first two characters of  the menu text are the  "hotkey" letter
     that will be highlighted in the menu text, plus a space.

     The  filename  specifies  a  plain  text  file,  with  the  echoids
     (wildcards allowed)  of the  areas you  want to  scan when the menu
     item is selected. There can be several echoids on each line in  the
     file. If no path is given, the file is loaded from the GOLDPATH.

     The -delete option will cause GoldED to delete the list file  after
     scanning  the  areas  in  it.  For  example, if your mail processor
     generates a list of the areas that it tossed new mail to, you could
     add the list as a menu item on the scanning menu and use it to scan
     only those  areas with  new mail.  Note that  some mail  processors
     automatically delete  their list  after using  it for replylinking.
     You may want to  do some creative stuff  with batchfiles to grab  a
     copy.


       Example:

         AREALISTSCAN "g Scan Newsgroups" NEWSGRPS.LST
         AREALISTSCAN "L Scan Latest" R:\GECHO\IMPORT.ALL -delete

         === Cut, NEWSGRPS.LST ===
         ALT.*, COMP.*, MISC.*, NEWS.*
         REC.*, SOC.*, SCI.*, TALK.*
         === Cut ===

         === Cut from an import batchfile ===
         gecho mgr toss pack -tossbad
         if exist import.jam type import.jam >>import.all
         if exist import.hmb type import.hmb >>import.all
         if exist import.sdm type import.sdm >>import.all
         mbutil link -clean
         === Cut ===
