Hello Patrick, ND >>Now I'd like to actually _use_ TB! from Linux and was wondering ND>> if anyone has any experience of running Windows and Linux TB!

Ditto for me. Apart from that, I seem to have only one remaining (serious) problem. TB! only seems to pick up one of many accounts when I run it under wine. Unfortunately Ctrl-Alt-Shift-L fails because the Alt key seems to be ignored. So far I can't find anything about this in Wine or Linux references. Any ideas? -- Nick Using TheBat!: v1.62r - back on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________________ http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
