Bernhard, thanks for the info. Do you think that confirmation mode should be a default? True, in many gui toolkits file chooser dialogs overwrite protection is not a default, but I'd think it's better to place safeguards against potential data loss. Then I can always turn it off if I am brave enough. Cheers, Ed.
