Q50: You don't understand! I _really_ need to have more then 400 files
in a directory!
A50: No you don't. You need to organize your files. Your laziness is not a

cd /mnt/archos
find . -name "*.mp3" > all.m3u
Remember that playlists are simple text files. You can edit them with any
normal text editor.
