*nod* yeah its not really a big deal but is a pain and I do so try to avoid pain. I've done what you've done but not to that extent. I may go ahead and split it up even further to keep things even smaller although its working fine right now. One reason I don't split it up so much is that I don't run multiple instances of BNR at the same time.
