Thankyou very much Joe... as with everything in Unix, once you find out the
answer, it is super simple.  But until you find the answer, it is an Escher
drawing you have seen for the first time.

I did install the Gnome-Sawfish via the Package Add feature in
/stand/sysinstall over the net.  Will that give me the latest version you
are talking about?  Or do I still have to cvsup it?

And if so, well, that is something I have to learn how to do, havn't used
cvsup yet.

TJ
