Would there be anything against using hard links? Isn't it nice that you can delete the original files, knowing that that are save when used in a session. Portability would be a problem of course, and deleting files might become more difficult then you would like. But if you would be able to control this with the session manager, it might be a desirable feature. lieven _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
