Ben and Adrian are working on it, the trial solutions are not in 21.4 and will not be until I have time to verify that they don't break other platforms (my impression is that they do involve cross-platform code, but I don't even have time to confirm or disconfirm that right now---I know it's a pretty big change). Or we get some experience with them in 21.5. --=20 University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JA= PAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +81 (298) 53-5= 091 _________________ _________________ _________________ ______________= ___ What are those straight lines for?
