Aaaahhhhhhhhh; That's always a very rewarding effort, worthy of assistance.

If you want you could use the original method I used before going to the /mnt/+Path+File method.
That is adding a number to the file's mount point dirs. to make them unique.
If you want, I'll post code to do this, but you should be able to handle it no prob.
Rather than an arbitrary number, use the number of the next loop device.
So the mount point would be: FileName_LoopNumber ..... (pup_save.2fs_4).
To set the loop device that's to be used for mounting, use "losetup".

In ROX and right-click on a sfs, 2fs or 3fs and by editing Menu to load filemnt, filemt is in the menu now and any such file can be mounted by right click.
Nice.
The unmount should still be done manually however.
