Folks,

It is easy to assume how easy or not something is. The evolution of code over 
time can make for some interesting twists. Some of the easiest sounding items 
are quite convoluted...trust me!

In this case you would have to be greeted with a list of possible filenames to 
use just like when you fire up TR with multiple config files in a directory. 
There will be many .DAT files to choose from. IT is not as foolproof as it 
sounds at first, but doable. I can put this on the list, but I would not 
expect it to float up to the top too quickly.
