There was some talk a few months ago of bringing them (it?) up to Draft 8 and onto 2.0R. Has there been any progress? A student here has gotten the 1.1.5.1 library running on 2.0R, maybe. We're stuck at the moment and unsure whether it's our bug, differences between 1.1.5.1 and 2.0R, or a bug in the original library. Anyway, is anyone else working along this line? Should we wait for some imminent release that will solve all our problems? Should we just continue to slug it out alone? dayton _________ _____/ D \_____________ | | | Dayton Clark | | CIS Department | | Brooklyn College/CUNY | | Brooklyn, New York 11210 | | | | 718/951-4811 | | dayton@brooklyn.cuny.edu | |___________________________|
