Well, I posted this primarily for your benefit, Richard, since you 
mentioned planning a project that works with files. I gather from 
your response that you do not need any of that info. May be I am the 
only one ever :)

If you read Bugzilla, you should have noted that Mr. Rinaldi wrote he 
had checked and not seen anything that could be wrong with the 
external and suspected an issue with the engine, hence I entered this 
into Bugzilla. Who am I argue with Mr Rinaldi, probably the most 
noted external writer.

Note also that later, I have converted this from bug report to 
enhancement request. The detailed files info does not contain any of 
the info I mentioned. Plus, "the detailed files" is read only, 
whereas all those items must be read/write.
