No. Instead of tarring your nnml files together, make them into a digest. I think there is a script at http://www.fuentez.com/ding to do that. Poof. Best of all possible worlds. Less inodes, compressed file (at least in 0.27...), no new code for Lars, convenient interface (once digests start working again). -- Joe Hildebrand Fuentez Systems Concepts hildjj@fuentez.com 11781 Lee-Jackson Hwy, Suite 700 Lead Software Engineer Fairfax, VA 22033 "Breakfast recapitulates phylogeny" - Spider Robinson
