The RJ Mical file requester seems to implement all of your requsted features
(caching, leaving pointer fixed among separate invocations).  One thing that I
really don't like (for example) of the new Arp1.3 file requester is the fact 
that each time I the programs call it, it recomputes the list of files  
again. Is this an inherent flaw of the file requester or of the application 
program that uses it?

-- Marco Papa 'Doc'
BTW, the RJ mical file requster is not reentrant but can be "multiply" 
instantiated.
