Is there a way I can update it by using my laptop? It would be nice to be able to sync a copy of my world list on my laptop without clobbering my laptop's world list. Then do a fetch for the standalone world and when on the console pf the standalone do the update to the fetched packages on the laptop. The idea is not to have the laptop as an image of the standalone, but as a server to sync to while keeping the laptop's world separate. Thanks, dhk
