Does "_H_A_" mean hidden and archive attributes on? If so...

It would be a bonus if you'd use the ordinary DOZE dir so I wouldn't
have to guess.

: Looks like I should get the upgrade :-)  It is attacking the

... what does "ls -a d*" give you? If DESCRIPT.ION is hidden "d*" will
probably expand to "debug" or "Debug" so "ls d*" will be expanded to
"ls debug" so what you see is what you should see.
