Somewhat off-topic, but could it explain _why_ 1st-guide always
ends up loading the same file twice, when I have 2 similar file
names?  For example, something like:

ridiculouslylongfilename1.jpeg   and
ridiculouslylongfilename2.jpeg

will result in 1ST-Guide loading the first filename twice.

Speaking of which, the above problem happens both when using
Freedom or with drag&drop on Thing.

Any ideas?
