Hi Martin,

I actually tried with just the first variable but it didn't work.  I
added the next two and tested again.  It still didn't fully work.  Not
until I made the other changes did it all `take.'

Now my top level directory is tidy (I'm an engineer, I like tidy!
<g>) and GNUS of course rocks.

Cheers,
