I'm afraid that makes it TOO small a project! :-) Besides, it won't scale up to all the other files I'd like to collapse into "somewhere".

So while I did like the idea of collapsing everything for any single port into a single file, I moved away from that idea. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
