    do pay attention at the back! :) the parent button has always been 
dodgy, even in v2.0! if you go down one directory, it wont let you come 
back up the directory path, but if you go down two directories, it will 
only let you come up one directory. seems like you just cant get back 
up past the first directory. very poor, they *SHOULD HAVE USED ASL!!!*, 
along with screen database stuff and more... :(:(:(
