Subject: Changes File Name
Hello there. The changes file for this distro is called Changes.txt. That doesn't appear to be one of the names that search.cpan.org recognizes as being a 'Special' file, so it isn't obvious how to view the changes once a new version has been uploaded. Any chance you could change it to CHANGES or ChangeLog or something that would show up? Smylers

Understood. Frankly, I like being able to double click on files and have the associated app fired up by the OS. With extensionless files, I don't see how this can be done. While I realize the name I use is not 'compatible', I'm currently convinced the problem lies with the official names. So, I don't quite know what's best. Sorry. Ideas? -- Cheers Ron Savage, ron@savage.net.au on 17/11/2004 http://savage.net.au/index.html
