This would be a nice service. =20= Nevertheless, I think the ability to handle decomposed Unicode =20 characters (the way file names, but not time stamp dates, are =20 recorded in Mac OS X's HFS+ file system) is more valuable and =20 important. One could search for such file names and file name =20 completion would work. -- Greetings Pete (: _ / __ - - _/ \__/_/ - - (=B4`) (=B4`) - - `=B4 `=B4
