Some years ago (consult the email archives) I proposed a similar change to djtar, to replace the '->' (or whatever) string with a single tab character, so that the fnchange output from djtar could also be used (unmodified) as an input list of filename conversions. DJ gave the proposed change a green light, but another djgpp worker objected, so I just let the matter drop. -- j
