I think by now we're all aware of LessTif. It turns out that Christoph's reference to ftp.heart.barnard.za was supposed to be a humorous pot shot at whoever misspelled implementation, interpreted as implantation or transplant. Sorry, meine Gymnasium Deutsch ist sehr rustig, too rusty to appreciate the German sense of humor; at least not at six o'clock in the morning. This no doubt gives my Kicheli ancestors good reason to roll over a few times in their grave. Well, someday I may try to find a job in Germany, and then I'll have a chance to get really good at speaking German and appreciating German humor. Humor, especially obscure humor, needs a smiley or three please to identify it as such. -- Kaleb
