[Dxspider-support] Fwd: wpxloc and unknown prefix when loading cty.dat

[Rene Olsen]

Hi.

Thanks for the info.

Kinda weird that spider has such old files. I seem to remember that Dirk used to keep 
CVS/GIT pretty much up to date with those files.

But, anyway. Downloaded the wpxloc.raw file, and the errors went away.

Thanks.
