The development directory currently has over 300 files, which appears to cause MS-DOS to work hard maintainting the directory. Is it possible to make the TDS system use subdirectories (conveniently) to reduce the number of files stored in a directory? Is there any way to reconcile the contents of a directory with the fold structure, so that files which have become unlinked from the fold structure but not deleted may be removed safely? -jeremy -- -- Jeremy Webber ACSnet: jeremy@chook.ua.oz Digital Arts Film and Television, Internet: jeremy@chook.ua.oz.au 3 Milner St, Hindmarsh, SA 5007, Voicenet: +61 8 346 4534 Australia Papernet: +61 8 346 4537 (FAX)
