My point was more that it would be nice if a clean stock install supported this, and extensions managed their own ini files centrally, rather then each distribution doing it's own thing? Some of the current discussions relate to individual extensions, rather than core functionality so it would be nice simply to wrap them in a way that they can be ignored if not applicable to a particular installation? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
