I don't think similar functionality exists in Plucker. We are not iSilo. We don't try to be like them. d. ___ plucker-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-dev

Yes, but it still won't give what iSiloX can give, since it's only going to give the two files in this example. What if one wants (and I must confess that this is not something I actually needed) to get two files, and, say, everything these two files link to, at depth 1 relative to each?
