I frequently do this on UV. (Note--the VOCLIB or a PL file; **NOT** the VOC file!) It makes using non-U2 editors a lot easier. I use UltraEdit on Windows and TextWrangler on Mac. Both have Open/Save via ftp.

Performance? Minor hit when invoking paragraph as the READ in the VOCLIB now requires an extra Unix (or Windows) fopen as the "record" is a file. But I haven't seen a noticeable degradation.

Now doing that to the VOC file where all verbs and keywords are looked up for each TCL (ECL) command would be a different story.

hashed file. Why would you want to change this to a directory?
