I haven't been following the thread, but caught something interesting in this message. It may be overkill, but I'd like to add configure checks for the final listing. What we have has served us well, but adding more checks takes little time and would help catch portability issues. Please cc: me on the final list unless someone decides this would be more clutter than solution. -- 73, de Brad KB8UYR/6 <rez touchofmadness com> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@grass.itc.it http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
