Overall its great and we would like to thank the authors. BRAVO. Please take a bow. Gee, thanks. Umm.. My, that release is _really old_ - it's almost embarassing taking kudos for it! :-) Nonetheless, in X Windows, we have found what appears to be a conflict between "cmdtool" and "more." Whenever we use the more command inside cmdtool, more doesn't work. That is, more does not display the file. When we exit more, the cmdtool window shuts down. Hmmm. I can't say that I've ever seen this, but running 1.0.2 makes it almost impossible to diagnose the problem! :-( I literally haven't even seen a 1.0 system for at least a year, and would have no way to easily reproduce one. Are you sure you might not consider upgrading to 1.1.5.1, available on the net? It would at least enable us to speak a common language in fixing bugs. Of course, if you don't hurry then everyone will be running 2.0 and you'll get left behind *again*, but that's life in the computer industry, eh? :-) Jordan
