Rich,

Many thanks for this essential contribution.

I have not tested nor used this project stuff yet but I was just 
wondering if having a 5 letters extension for the project files 
(.frproj) is not going to a problem under Windows 9x or some other 
platforms in the future. And people are so accostumed to 3 letters 
extension.

I know it's a detail but what about using .frp instead? I have already 
checked that this extension is not used by any other applications.
