Hi Blake,

In MS windows, file extensions are everything (so important that they
have spent extra efforts to hide them for the dumb user).

In Linux they are more like a convention but not a must. GNU APL searches
first for a file with the name provided by the user and only looks for .xml or
.apl files if no file with the name given originally is present.

Therefore files Editor.apl~ and gg can be )LOADed and )COPYd and are
therefore shown. I might hide files starting with '.' (current only directories
./ and ../ are hidden) but I am not sure. They can be useful at times.

Greetings,

)LIB should only show .xml and .apl files and not any other files. For example:

      )LIB
Devices.xml KeyedFiles.apl box.xml boxing.apl file Editor.xml gg


Editor.apl~ and gg should not be displayed. )LIB displays workspaces and not files.

Thanks.

Blake
