I tried to use the -F option on NeMaC to append flow data to the existing flow data file. The new file overwrote the old file, which wasn't exactly what I was hoping for. I looked at the code and understand that the '##' record at the beginning is problematic, but I'm a little unclear on why. I've looked through the archive and didn't see anything that succinctly explained why. To avoid deleting my live data by accident in the future, I made a small change to the code which 'versions' the -F file name instead of just opening for write.... Is there some value to sending this as a patch, or is there a really good reason to leave the filenaming convention (and attendant file destruction) the way it currently works?
