I cannot read it of course as this old dog didn't get any non-english in school, not enough years attended, and never been out of the country (US) any farther than half an hour in Tijuana Mexico & that was 30 years ago. But its still interesting to me that its apparently correctly displayed here. >thanx, >Glenn Alexander >(B.Teach, B.Ed Major IT Education, University of Wollongong > Australia) Home site: http://www.shoalhaven.net.au/~glenalec >___________________________________________________ >. >Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde. >Archives: http://lists.kde.org/. >More info: http://www.kde.org/faq.html. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
