That's starting to sound more complicated than necessary. Maybe -bdist could just create a ".from_bdist" file in spkg/standard, and -sdist would look for that file. Instead of writing a script to look at filesizes, we just use `touch' and `if [ -f ... ]'. Dan -- --- Dan Drake ----- http://mathsci.kaist.ac.kr/~drake -------
