Thank you very much to you, Frank, and Camp To Camp. This is a very welcome addition for file based datasources. GDAL is becoming more and more powerful, versatile, useful and ... big. Maybe you could add a -straight clause so to avoid the parser. GDAL/OGR shoud remain fast when used only as a conversion library. c
