That's a good idea :-) Although I must say that Linux has very good file buffering. As soon as a file has been read once, it will take only milliseconds to open and read it again, even with masses of files. Anyway, this is a thing I'll keep in mind for next time when I have to revamp the file and filtering functions. It could really help.
