Well, turns out that it only works once, then it no longer works, requiring another restart. Can't even copy from one message into another. Odd thing is I was able to paste the text into an editor, Quanta+, in fact, I was able to copy/paste whatever I wanted into Quanta+, but not Netscape or even another email message. Is this just one of those weird X things that we have to live with? -- Regards, Chip To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
