I get your point. But not having a common extension makes it more difficult to recognize a sqlite db from other files, especially if you want to share your files. In a desktop environment, an extension is useful for opening files with the proper application and for displaying a specific icon for that files. A recommendation would be nice IMO. -- Bertrand Mansion Mamasam --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
