Since I hit the button too early the second part of my answer is here. Two points. Could you specify what you mean with "trying harder". The question is if a project like LINUX doesn't contradict your proposition. What if the cooperation is better than the often arrogant support by the company? Honestly I doubt that I would be treated like I was when I dared to ask where my favorite feature had remained, amely the Crtl-I for the content of the notation of a game! That is simply gone in the new CB7&8. You already answered in CSS but there is no solution until today. Thanks again for the many interesting answers. Rolf Tueschen > >Regards, >M.Scheidl
