Takashi Iwai may be faster then me > on fixing it, though. i found it, too, and did a quick fix in the train returning from the LAD meeting last evening :) please try the cvs version. ciao, Takashi ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by:Crypto Challenge is now open!
