[hobbit] "Main View" Help Needed

[wiskbroom at hotmail.com]

I guess to simplify it, I want to create a set of "new" pages which are centered and not an extension of any previous set.  

So, for example, my settings for BGENOPTS="--subpagecolumns=7". Now supposing I have six sites which I want to monitor, my next entry for "page" gets wrapped into the actual sites, and the entries for ALL, which are all of the Windows Servers, Linux Servers, etc, are limited to just 7, as shown above, what if Ihave 8?  Also, I want to make a clear distinction between the sites and the aggregated list.
