FRACTINT wrote that. I didn't. That was a full pathname, minus the drive: /fractint/fotd/20040414.bat Deleting pathnames is annoying, but I guess it follows from ignored pathnames. BTW, savenames are not RE-stored in parameter files, either...I don't think it would hurt shit if savenames defaulted to the name of the parameters, that being the name of the formula in the absence of named parameters. What I don't understand is why this isn't a problem when the formula begins with "frm:". It shouldn't make a bit of difference. As far as I can see, all that "frm:" should do is tell FRACTINT what _not_ to display in the parameter file window. Unfortunately, it has the same effect on formulas in a formula file, so I don't use it, and even when this bug is fixed, I probably won't use "frm:" for a long time to account for all the users without a version that handles it. Maybe the program was easier to use in subdirectories before someone thot of a way to make FRACTINT read the comments.
