Good grief, what are you smoking ? Part of the complaint is that some files (particularly rules) are too long, and so you propose to merge everything into one huge file. Realistically that would only be editable using a custom XML editor that would split out the components and offer them for editing a chunk at a time - instead of (as is the case now) being able to use any editor of your choice. Out of interest, do you do your editing on a system with graphical desktop GUI ? -- Simon Hobson Visit http://www.magpiesnestpublishing.co.uk/ for books by acclaimed author Gladys Hobson.
