<div>Ok, with my 1 hour old ocaml skills i have fixed my problem by putting all the temp file info in the suffix rather than the prefix. This then lets the file extension remain invariant thuoghout the copy raname procedure.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Note, this is based on unison-2.13.16</div>
<div> </div>
<div>diff unison-2.13.16/os.ml unison-2.13.16_a/os.ml<br>375c375<br>< (Path.addSuffixToFinalName path s)<br>---<br>> (Path.addPrefixToFinalName path s)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>However</div>
<div> </div>
<div>This leaves problems with the consistency of the code. Fisrt off tempFileSuffix is no loger used as a suffix so the namingis inconsistent and second off lines 138 and 139 are checking for files that end in tempFileSuffix, which will never exists.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Given my unison design and ocaml knowlege is very basic can anyone:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>a) let me know if my code change will cause anu disasters if I use it</div>
<div>b) suggest a putter code patch to solve my problem?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks</div>

<div>OK i see. I have never programed caml before so I'm a bit stuck. I looks like I need to edit lines some of the stuff between 368..382 and 137..147 could anyone help me workout what changes to make? </div>
