I see that you've volunteered to help out with insight. Can you tell me when the next release will be? I have some unspecified vague bugs that may or may not be my fault and I was hoping that you will have automatically fixed them when you make your new release. Incidentally, I'd suggest rewriting insight in Ada. I think you'll definitely have fewer problems going forward that way. HTH, cgf
