It will simplify things for users. I suppose it depends on the file formats being different enough to easily identify.
There may be one downside; at present one can define different default directories for the various import options. This is a good feature because it allows gnubg to automatically be in the right place for opening one's FIBS or TMG files, for example. I wouldn't like to lose this feature, especially as gnubg's file browser is poorer than the standard windows version. -- Ian _______________________________________________ Bug-gnubg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnubg
