Edit -c also is a simple check to see if 'editors' returns any output... it'd have to be much more complex for tag/branch support. It'd probably be best to junk the existing fileattr format and start again with a new one (it has other problems eg. you can't edit a file with '+' in the filename). As long as the client/server communication is compatible then that shouldn't cause any problems. Tony -- Te audire no possum. Musa sapientum fixa est in aure.
