      Yes, I realized that earlier today while mussing over it.  I 
currently have no public archives, which is why I'd not though of it 
sooner.  I was going to change anyway since I'd rather not add a new 
function if I can avoid it - staying with stock files is better.

     I've made the change, and it does add the needed trailing slash.  Thanks.
