Unfortunately the university of Washington is no longer developing Alpine. The current version is 2.00 and isn't updated since 2008. Is Alpine definitely dead or should I look out for an alternative? (Btw I don't know how to program, or I would try this myself). Marco -- Surly to bed, surly to rise, makes you about average.
