How do you enter text? We have a keyboard routine, but as great as it is (and it IS great) it is quite a chore to use. Maybe you would accept this limitation. 2. It would require a LOT of disk reading which would eat the batteries alive! Again, perhaps you appreciate this already? You may be able to ease this by storing an index file somewhere (root?), but it would need to be updated every time you modified even one file. Given the unavoidable limitations, does it still sound like a good idea?
