Thanks. Actually coldwind also reminded me of mp3. However, it is only 3 chars. ebuild-1 is way too long, which is what I think not elegant. And file extension like welcome.html.fr is quite self-explanatory. But an total outsider has no chance to deduce what the 1 in ebuild-1 means on his own. -- Zhang Le, Robert GPG key ID: 1E4E2973 Fingerprint: 0260 C902 B8F8 6506 6586 2B90 BC51 C808 1E4E 2973 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
