|"Managable" for who? It wouldn't be "managable" for ME to have HUGE
|directories with tons of files, all of which had short, meaningless
|names!!! The 'q' directory is where I keep "short URLs" (which are just
|_links_ to other files and directories on the site) with the idea to
|keep "all garbage in one place", without it affecting the directory
|structure in any way.
'-----------------------------
Ok, ok... remain calm. It was just a suggestion! Obviously I have no control
over your site and incidentally the /q/ has very little difference in
length. What I was talking about was that in the FAQ your URL wrapped and
spoilt the list! :o)

Well, I thought so --- :o)
