But if the       starting point is near the end of the sequence, then there are not       enough pictures in list1.txt, so the picture show would be finished       before the PC ist switched off. Therefore the complete file list       is appended to list1.txt. But the number of pictures displayed in       one session is always much lower than the total number of pictures.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
