That will teach me to take a nap. That's why I use genlop too. I rarely use any of the q commands. It seems something is always missing for one reason or the other. I'm sure that varies over time tho. I'm just disappointed that genlop fails if it runs into a package that has not been compiled before. It offers a option to go to a website and estimate the time from that but thing is, no one has my CPU so that errors out too. I wish they would put it back like it was and if a person wants to use the option to check a website, fine, they can do that. In the meantime, I get something besides a error message and no info at all. Progress is sometimes no progress at all. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
