Yes, a stupid copy-and-paste-error but the "Not found" confused me.

But I was trying to create the segment (newsegment) and the
documentation does not say that "404 NOT_FOUND" is allowed for this.

I am writing my own editor using Perl/Tk.  It is now functional for
editing the network and I will add support editing tags also.  In a
week or so I will probably have testet it with my own data and can
release it for others to try it.

I was also thinking about doing some command line tools for useful
things.
