Yes, we could do the API changes. I have too many things on my
plate already, so I am not going to promise to do this. If you
have time and the inclination, then you are welcome to do so,
although I'd like to look over see a draft of the changes before
they are checked in, if that's all right.OK. I'm looking at it. I'll send you a patch and discus it with you before I commit anything. J' BTW. The GUI can now sort its working file. Use the Sort Cases item in the Data menu. -- PGP Public key ID: 1024D/2DE827B3 fingerprint = 8797 A26D 0854 2EAB 0285 A290 8A67 719C 2DE8 27B3 See http://pgp.mit.edu or any PGP keyserver for public key.
