I know all the places why UPDNODES is slow. There are many way to
improve that. Please remember that this program is
my second pascal program at all
written in spare time
As long as the "network directory" does not move a substantial
step towards "international" standards I do not see to invest
to much time making performance improvements.
If the directory which is processed by UPDNODES
and GENODUPD changes, the program will definetely be changed.
