If they were club, I assume that means a number of folks ask for them, which brings up a question I've had for some time: Why? W/ MSWormOS, Acrobat was necessary, because there was no native PS/PDF support. W/ gv, kghostview, ggv, xpdf, etc, why on EARTH is a proprietary viewer necessary? At one point, during the KDE 3.1 betas, kgv failed to work correctly, but ggv or xpdf, etc, continued to work just fine. I just see no reason to worry about acrobat. -- Duncan "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin
