Karl thanks for chiming in.
One option you can use right now that may help is in your postgui hal file
add the commands :
source filename.hal
source filename2.hal
This also works I'm not sure the difference
loadusr halcmd -f filename.hal
loadusr halcmd -f filename2.hal
While I don't disagree with your request that would require AXIS and Touchy to
be changed.
I was hoping my request could be put in 2.5 (smaller change easier to get
acceptance - I hope)
