So mathematically speaking, we have refactored the equasion so that under a different set of constants, a whole section of variables have be made redundant. That will also allow with the fakedroot.sh script, the ability to get around the installation problems that I have with windows binaries that I want to run under linux via wine. They can be installed under a fakedroot with a faked path all all thier own. This will also allow for a faked cross compiler that thinks it is native. hehe!! that might allow for a much faster porting of gnu software to windows. mike ===== James Michael DuPont http://introspector.sourceforge.net/ __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
