Is there a specific advantage to extension guessing that you have in mind? It seems just as usable, clear, clean, fast, and unambiguous to say "load this library", and have it just, uh, load exactly that library. Having the system try to do what it thinks you want seems...Windows-esque. The "guessing" part perhaps belongs in the HLL. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Tiger gotta hunt. Bird gotta fly.
