I can add back the .dir extension to the mhexternal.pl filter. I can
add the option "nosubdirext" for it so users that do not want it
have a way to remove the extension w/o patching the code. I know the
original reason, as mentioned by a user, for removing the .dir extension
was due to the stupidity of other software, but I figured there would
be no harm to remove the .dir.
I can create a minor update release of MHonArc, which will include
some other modifications beside the .dir thing, in the next couple
of days if you desire.
