I can't think of anything else to check. Well, after checking my TeX book of choice, it still says that the error TeX hit is due to some buffer overrun which is either caused by a programming error (ie infinite loop) or a real exhaustion. Now, I have no idea which is @play here. But I will try to follow your example and report back any results to this list. But I have to finish my buildworld first because this machine cannot do both at once. -- Regards: Szilveszter ADAM Szeged University Szeged Hungary To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
