I have integrated that program into my package, converted all files to M4, and (probably) added 50 extra hidden bugs in the process ;-) >use Proc::WaitStat qw(waitstat_reuse); What is this? It wasn't installed on my computer, so I commented it out, and it seems OK... Coincidence? I will put version diskless 0.1.7 online my HTTP site, ASAP, and if I cannot find any major problems with it, I will attempt to upload it to Debian (I am not 100% sure on this step yet, especially as I don't have my account passwords yet - are these required for uploads?) -- Brian May <bam@snoopy.apana.org.au>
