Thanks for the tips; I"ve taken José's advice and replaced the records with objects. This does make things easier as long as you think object-oriented; I was suffering from exhaustion and a deja-vu with QuickBasic record structures ;) I have to test the code a bit more to see if it falls over on large filesystems and if it works on OSX (and possibly Maemo/Nokia N900 - hmmm, would have to have a cross compiler setup for that ;). After that, it's off to the databases: storing the results into a Firebird database at first. I'll probably start with prepared SQL statements; later I might look into tiOPF. Then (by Christmas ;) probably a Lazarus GUI for searching through the results, running scans etc. The code is on http://bitbucket.org/jb/flocate/ Comments are welcome - I'm still learning so there must be tons of things I could have done better - but thanks to the list it's at least working!
