However, I see you are using the development series so just about any thing goes ;) The next devel snapshot should be out in a few days, and may address these problems. Things are coming to ahead. If I don't get carried away again with new code we should see a feature freeze and a pre1.0 beta quite shortly. -- "Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies, The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.
