[Dx4win] DX cluster hookup?

Hi Dennis, Jim & all;

I raised this point a while ago (again!!); and am happily hooked up top AR
Cluster, which I have configured to my home node.

I still think that this is too many key strokes and ops; and my opinion is
still that it should be automated, just like running Win Test.  Here; once
set up, it can be forgotten about; it just runs in a Telnet window.

Mine is just an opinion, I am not the software writer; guess I know what I
like and what I find a bit of a drag...

Still to get round to updating to V8; been very busy, so am happy to let the
dust settle for the moment. and then jump in..

In 8.01, whatever node you select gets moved to the top of the list for
next time.

There is no way to do an automatic connect.  You still have to enter
your call.  Please see the section called "Tips" here:
