Well, you obviously forgot that Java forces you to use one file per class (or did they change that stupid requirement recently?). I couldn't deal with 2000 files in Emacs either, but 35 files and the same LOC would be no problem (esp. as you focus on a handful at once only). :-) > -austin -- Christian Neukirchen http://chneukirchen.org
