Done. If you encounter build problems or cvs conflicts, run build extraclean all and cvs up the tree again (hoping that you've perl installed). I've added a 301 Redirection to the online docs from *.html.ja.his to *.html.ja.euc-jp. After some reasonable time (some months) I plan to replace it with 410 and later to remove it finally to keep our stuff clean from legacy things. nd -- Winnetous Erbe: <http://pub.perlig.de/books.html#apache2> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
