Only for my understanding: Can you give (an) example(s) where the present
behaviour is usefull against the non-granulat approach.
In my win98se system directory are about 98 executables. I think only a few
are proposed to crash run on another system.
But I am more concered about the case where e.g. a comctl32 is in the
starting directory and you want to run the builtin dll...
Anyway, something like ' --dll "*/comctr32=b" ' that would defeat _any_
native comctl32 from loading is good too.
Bye
