Ok, now I KNOW that "a console file is not just like any other file
and that ..." it is not even a file.
The "bit of occasional bother" remains though because I occasionally
work with several documents to keep them in line. e.g.
RBAv4-1 > CheckableItems > 13
RBAv4-1 > Homeworks > 13
RBAv4-1 > WorkOuts > 13
RBAv4-1 > Quizzes > 13
RBAv4-1 > Text > 13
where 13 is the chapter number.
Best regards
