I ran across this post of FDV's recently, From: Any ideas on how nLite works?

you can actually copy the entire file list from TXTSETUP and paste it into LAYOUT. It will work fine, you do NOT need those file byte counts, and your setup will go much faster since LAYOUT and TXTSETUP copy files twice.

Curious, is this one of the things HFSLIP does? Or only with FDV's Fileset?

I never understood why no one ever dared bother with LAYOUT. To be honest I always assumed no one could quite grasp the whole "replace ,_x, with ,," concept.

My fileset is the only place you'll ever see this (a duplicate file list shared between TXTSETUP and LAYOUT).
