I dont think this dependency is needed to achieve linking to filters in another directory i think its worth the few hours extra time to find a clean/nice way to do it with no new depeandancies also there is the quite intriguing option of using "git merge" to include external filters What i mean here is that there could be a script lets call it ffmerge "ffmerge available" would check some online repository and list whats compatible with the current checkout "ffmerge merge shiny_filter" would then merge the shiny filter repository/branch Advanatge would be that this is more powerfull than just linking external filters. Disadvantage is that for this to work care needs to be taken that conflicts do not occur thx [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong. -- Voltaire
