 SL> Does this option still honour the REPLACES keyword in the TIC file?

Yes, it does. Only the file copied/moved into the fileecho's directory will
be renamed if any duplicate is found.

 SL> There's at least three potential modes of operation:

That's the default (or set by "replace").

 SL> 2) don't replace files unless REPLACES indicates it should

No, the "noreplace" switch causes htick 1.9 to ignore the REPLACE
command in the TIC file and also prevents overwriting files which got the
same name.

 SL> 3) don't replace files at all

Yes, set by the "noreplace" switch.

Markus
