I've just checked the zip files on the QHelp master very carefully, and there is *no* menu_rext. More to the point, the boot supplied does not load it: just ptr_gen, wman, qlib_run, and hot_rext -- all of which I have! Is DIR_SELECT$ really part of menu_rext?
So the problem remains: why does QHelp complain that DIR_SELECT$ is a bad name now under an emulator, when it ran perfectly well on a black box? When I got my QL in 198? I was impressed by how much easier to use it was than my PC at work. Nowadays I'm constantly noticing how much easier Linux is! For anyone who's wrestled with installing QL Lynx, compare the Linux installation: just type "rpm -i Lynx". And then the QL version needs half a dozen environment variables set every time you run it. I've never needed to set an environment variable for a Linux program. It seems that as other computers have got simpler, the QL has got more confusing (and confused). _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
