Which would be the same as my option (1) which you have'nt quoted  
above;-)... actually "deleting" the file from, say, a tar archive  
wouldn't gain you anything storage-wise as you cannot shorten the  
tar, so it's enough to simply drop the old reference from the index.  
Plus you'll need the reverse index to detect whether the file is  
"empty".

Bye
Frederik
