   That is strange.   
      
   > Replaces for the same file name?   
      
   When you hatch a new version like WP416.ZIP you could add a "Replaces   
   WP415.ZIP" line to the tic file that is sent out and when nodes import the new   
   version it will replace (delete) the WP415.ZIP file.   
      
   Mine does but not every tic processor knows about the "Replaces" line. I think   
   most modern tic processors know what to do when they encounter the replaces   
   keyword in a tic file.
