this would be a cheap work around, error prone and ghastly to maintain. Isn't that stuff belonging to well standardized MM ? > As we all know, altering MakeMaker is Fraught With Peril. I know i have no arguments, except one: usability. The file-renaming-for-sorting reminds me of fixing a leaky fuel tube with a chewing gum.
