interesting, but no. i can download these .fcgi files from a database and they are quite generic (they contains loads of records). all i wanted is to collect all therecords in one big fcgi file for outputting and sorting. but i may download new .fcgi files regularly and i want them included in the big fcgi file as well. however, i dont want to do the include process with each run of the program!
