I need to be convinced that there is any value if having a header for a zero-length file at the very end of the archive. I think this is way more capability than we need, and I am very paranoid about LAR, given the subtle bugs that we have had. Otherwise, I would rather not commit this. thanks ron -- linuxbios mailing list linuxbios@linuxbios.org http://www.linuxbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
