Hi,

in the surrounding field of bug #11484 I tried to improve the "user
experiance" by checking the existence of the user-specified listing file.
I changed two files:
     src/frontends/qt4/GuiInclude.cpp
     src/frontends/qt4/GuiInclude.h
The diff-output is attached.

Dear Jürgen,

I have a question: is the effect of your patch to disable the OK button when the file does not exist? If it is the case, I am not sure that it will considered as an improvement by everyone. I am not a heavy listings user, but I suspect that some people insert references to documents with placeholder names that they will update/create later.

I think it would be better to warn in a different way.

What I am trying to do is just start the discussion. It is up to heavy users of this feature to tell how they use it.
