You basically need to load the whole file since you have to know the length. The #asString conversion is probably not needed (but encodings could have to be involved). It can be done using streaming for files, as in ZnStaticFileServerDelegate>>#responseForFile: but it requires even more code. And yes, maybe yet another convenience method like the #downloadTo: would be useful ;-) Even guessing the mime-type from the extension is possible (as in ZnStaticFileServerDelegate>>#responseForFile:). I'll see what I can do later. Sven -- Sven Van Caekenberghe http://stfx.eu Smalltalk is the Red Pill
