Hops and directory depth are safety checks and are checked first, as far as I remember. Hop count does not work well as a way to limit what is visited. It...
Hi Walter, We have been checking the "Test" screen (and help), it's not clear on the # of hops when it shows the test results. Also, for batch vs. incremental...
