PR> Small hacks cannot really help here. A better fix would be to treat such files PR> like directories and to remove that message. Maybe such files should be marked PR> by "?" instead of "/". Displaying an error message for every such entry is PR> clearly an overkill. New diffs are attached. Those files are marked '?' and are coloured with STALE_LINK_COLOR. >> +#ifdef __QNXNTO__ PR> I prefer generic solutions. We have similar hacks for SCO UNIX in the code, and PR> it's hard to figure out now whether that code is still functional and whether PR> the hack could be useful for other OSes. WBR, Dmitry
