Thanks, kai.  I tried that, too, but with one list element as a
filename, like the comments in the file suggested, thinking it would use
the first match it found, and go through the list in order.  Which it
did, but the issue isn't there - it is in the code reading the list, it
seems to me, after the debugging session?

I mean this *is* development code I got out of CVS, isn't it?
