But wouldn't it be even simpler if the -RELEASE was sync'ed to a CTM delta (might be already, would be nice if there was a release marker in the CTM filename), and then all we'd need are .ctm_status files in the appropriate places. Even cheaper than a 70M base delta. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
