Bryant <davidbry...@gvtc.com> --- OK, I figured out how to patch my way around it. I looked inside a couple of "index.cache.bz2" files, and realized that they're just all the little html files generated by meinproc5, rolled up into one big html file. So I tried renaming "index.html" to be "index.cache", and sure enough, khelpcenter opens the renamed file without a whimper. I can do that with any of the "chunks" generated by meinproc5. Can't follow links to other "pages" the way I used to, though. I still maintain that this is a bug no matter what others may believe. An application program ought not give a diddly do damn what the file name extension associated with a particular file is, or means. It ought to do what I tell it to do (e.g., open this file) and not try to second-guess my command. If it turns out that the program can't handle the file format, it ought to complain -- after it has tried to process the file. But it really ought not care about the file name, or the filename extension, and refuse to function on account of an irrelevant detail (like what I decided to call this particular file). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
