Hi Gert!

Ah, ok, great, that's a good thing.

You could do that.  We should give the HUBs some time to make the change, and
also other people.. usually it's not a great idea to change a file echo tag
name, but it's been done :)  You just have to warn people, and let them know
when it will take effect.  Plan in advance in other words.. maybe give them a
two week warning to make the change, something like that.

Yep, well, you would have to do that anyway, right?

Yes, that is always a good idea. The replace keyword should be used when you
are overwriting an older file.

Take care,
