Dear Dr. Liu: I have been using Artemis on Mac OS X (from v. 10.0 to 10.1.4) for quite a while, and have never experienced such a problem. Which version are you using? I am using v. 5 (development). Are you running Artemis in the Classic or OS X environment? I run it in latter from Terminal.
Perhaps you may want to tell me which sequence file that you tested. I will try to see if I may reproduce the same problem. Carton W.
