This would be a modification for the upstream authors, however both seem to have gone missing. Unless someone else (who is reading this bug-report? :) wants to implement this, I would suggest two strategies; 1. If using batch files, chdir to `dirname $sfvfile` and then back after checking 2. I would recommend using "cfv" instead. It is much much more powerful, but requires python installed which may be a problem if cksfv is used due to its smaller size. [however, most people dealing with sfv-files seem to have plenty of disk space available *grin*] Regards, Stefan
