Dear Tomasz,
Let me repeat here that when we suggest something
we do not have any intension to apply any kind of stress.
So, if it is possible and if it does not disturb the scedule,
a request may be satisfied sooner or later.
On the other side, everybody in this superb site is doing his
best and the result is an advanced level group.
Advanced and fertile criticism gives day by day strong results.
Many "serious" articles in popular magazines or internet T/A sites
would not have the slightest chance to survive in this high-level
forum.
This may be a kind of reward for your continuous day and night
efforts.
I do not think that other multi-personal development has the same
impact.
So, keep up excellent work, we all are on your side.
Best Regards
Dimitris Tsokakis

could stay in memory but I think it's better to related to the script
on file only because we never sure which afl is more current (the one
on the file or the ones on memory).

setting could be overnight inside AFL.

indicator, run exploration, etc..

function definition

Commentary. The list could be a simple combo box to quickly choose a
AFL. This list will be user configurable by using the full tree view
list as the source.

dialog would also be useful.
