A solution for the 'File Requester' problem, that I would like to see implemented, is a _standard_ calling procedure to request it, and give the user the ability to system-wide define his/her personal preference. One way to do this would be to use a IFF type of file structure that the user could edit to include the interface modules that (s)he prefered. That file could be scanned at startup and a library node constructed that linked each module to a standard library offset. Adding new functions to the standard would be easy, just tack another lib vector on. Changing your preferences would just mean removing the old module from the IFF file and replacing it with the new one. Thus each user could in one fell swoop configure all supporting programs to his/her preference. And developers could concentrate on the imporntant stuff – writing correct code. -Dean
