Concerning the other problem :
After the directory walk putting the result into a field.
only tested on Mac OS X 10.2.6

Try this little gem in Metacard 2.4.3 or Revolution with this version 
of the engine
and in Metacard 2.5.1B3  or Revolution with this version of the engine
and see the difference.
Caution: do not try this at the same time when you have unsaved work 
open in the IDE.

on mouseUp
   put "Whatever text you really...." & cr into tFiller
   repeat 21 ---- 2097152 lines
     put tFiller after tFiller
   end repeat
   put tFiller into fld 1
   put the number of lines in fld 1
end mouseUp

Sneak preview :
The 2.4.3 engine will accomplish the feat, be it slow.
The 2.5.1 engine will lock up.

Don't know about the other platforms.
