Craig,

Good point - I think I've gotten away with it until now because no-one has
stressed the lib quite as much as you have!

To break up the monotony on the long march to version 2.0, I think I will
bundle the bugfixes from this plus a couple of others into a patch release
sometime this week.

I suppose I should also amend the documentation to say that using file handles
is a better idea than file names. But hey - open source software wouldn't be
quite so much fun if the documentation told you everything 

Cheers,

Phil
