I do so agree Jeremy, as I've got older, eyesight a little less acute,
patience thinning, I really do dislike CLI work, so a script or set of
scripts as you suggest would be a great boon.

The thing I have printed out is really an idiots guide (That's for me)
from http://www.riscos.info/index.php/RPCEmu_Linux_Guide how to download
and install Linux RPCEmu.

I have the RPCEmu Spoon edition installed on a MS-Win machine, but until I
found the above notes, all my attempts at installing it on Ubuntu were
total failures.

Have a looksee for yourself.

Dave

I have encountered a very interesting problem/bug? but I'll start a new 
thread for that one when I've done some more 'sperimentin... Might just be 
me of course.
