thank you. tree will do nicely, i'm having a tantrum with myself for not
thinking of the hack that TREE used. i am just too concerned with coming up
with a “minimal code–elegant hack'' to have thought of his approach. does
YOUR directory walker use straight recursion or do you follow TREE's example
and record subdirectories for opening later? i was dropping down into a
recursion whenever i saw a subdirectory and hoping ExNext would remember my
context correctly. thanx again for taking the time/money to reply. sdp
