Hello Craig, hello Peter, as for VMS::Logical on the Freeware: I think I should know that ;-) Seriously, VMS::Logical was on my wishlist for the freeware V6 and is currently on my ToDo list for the next freeware kit. This is one of the reasons I am looking for it right now ;-)
As for the Patch/CPAN: I do still have the mail with the Patch in my mailfolder on disk:-), I just need the original to apply the patch against. Anybody has one by chance? I might be able to polish the module up so it could be submitted, but would prefer if somebody who already has an account could do the final submission.
