Tim, undocumented reports of problems (tales out of school) do nothing to help fix the problems. if the problems are present others will find them as well. the first person to send in a useful problem report will aid those that fix the problems. the rest is not helpful. Please send in useful, documented bug reports (man send-pr) or just a short note. if you are going to take the time to write a longer note, please make it useful. jmb -- Jonathan M.
