I need to bounce this off you guys to see if there is a better way. This is
bugging every aspect of me and am looking for ideas to simplify my life.

I have two sets of files. Out of the 5 files in the set of files, only one
file in the set is different. So now I have a maintenance nightmare of
having two programs exactly the same (and keep the same) except for the
files they use. Is there a way I can make this one program? I could use a
flag and put an if statement on every read/write/update/delete, but could
there be a better way? The other file is similar, but different enough that
I think it would be best just to maintain two programs.
