I also now grok that you were doing an fd.readline() on the header then an fd.read() for the rest of the header. But I don't like the idea of adding any obfuscation to each header. It just makes the fileformat more specific and harder to understand. But I do think the first line of the header.info line should include a version number and/or a version info file should be kept on the server for the client to see/get. So I'll work on integrating most of your patch except for the header modification, thing. I'm just not sure i'm comfortable with that yet, Can you think of a convincing reason to modify the header in this way? -sv --=-SSb4UPggMbn4Xv07Nz3i Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQA9DAtd1Aj3x2mIbMcRAviHAKCfa3foF9WndJAA6v7E1flX+PbIWwCfXINi UqVy4y4eo+LCsMwcsNblqYs= =WSKO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-SSb4UPggMbn4Xv07Nz3i--
