But in the modern day let's all feel good spirit of "there are no stupid ideas, just some are better" I threw it out anyway. As to cvsnt, my actual feeling is I'd like to kick it in the ass, it has destroyed too many files for me over the years, binary and text, so I don't think its strategies are very good. That is why I'm kicking these ideas around, if I thought I knew the "right" way I would have written it already. Mark
