Since I don't have a debian system I'll let someone else fix this. It looks like '=' and backticks will work. In the future, before we create a release, ask me and I'll try a build on Solaris with Sun's make and cc. I can do AIX and HP too, but my guess is just Solaris will handle most of these problems. -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
