Glad it helped. I would suggest that you subscribe to the Announce
mailing list by sending a blank e-mail to:
mailto:[email protected] and replying to the
reply you will receive. This is a very low traffic list that will give
you notifications of new releases of the program. It is usually a good
idea to update as there are bug fixes and possibly security fixes to the
code.

Regards
Keith
