You are talking about convensions. That is OK. Let's call mod-files something.mod, native screens for something.scr, text files for something.txt or whatever, but don't impose this on the DOS! If I for some reason wants to call a text-file for just "tjalabais" without any suffix, or "tjalla.bais" I want to do that. A file should be transparent for the DOS. -Frode
