Some modules can't be unloaded once loaded. I'm not sure that this is the case with ide-cs (I sure hope it isn't). The way to ensure that a module isn't unloaded is to increment it's usage count an extra time. That may be the issue here. But again I haven't done any research on this particular module to be sure. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org We tend to see all wars through the lens of the current conflict, and we mine history for lessons convenient to the present purpose. - Brian Hayes
