Even for this I could make a workaround, but I guess this is something that other might stumble upon. I would like to move to powerpc, but for the moment there is no official support for powerpc, for ppc there is, but I don't have the time to move this to powerpc. So I am afraid I don't have much choice. Kind regards, -- Johan Borkhuis Dutch Space BV email: j.borkhuis@dutchspace.nl Newtonweg 1 phone: 071-5245788 Leiden fax: 071-5245499 The Netherlands
