Hi again, maybe the reason for this problem is the ´EPD Kit´!? I remember that your _very first_ version of 19.07 _did_ work, but you said, that you couldn´t solve EPD files with it and so you compiled it again with a new command (something for EPD, I don´t remember exactly) - and since this time the problems occured! Also the compilations of some other people here work, but they don´t show this message "EPD Kit revision date: 1996.04.21" at Crafty start, so there might probably be something wrong with this EPD Kit. (Although of course it would be nice to still have this EPD functionality) I hope this may help to find the error. Best regards, Franz.
