Hi John, Thank you for the link to Traverse implementation; I should have looked there myself. VZ uses GetFirst and GetNext, whereas I actually use FindFirst and FindNext. I'm not sure what exactly the differences are, but I'll re-implement Traverse in Lua and see if it is sufficiently fast for my needs.
