I sent email to hiarcs to report the problem, but so far I have not received a response. I started a thread concerning this problem in the rgcc news group. In response to that thread, I received private email from Thoralf Karlsson who confirmed that he was aware of a problem similar to the one I describe in that thread occurring on a computer like mine (Dell Pentium II 450 MHz, Win98). You might check out the thread in rgcc (subject: HIARCS 7 - Problems Starting it Using -X Option) to see if some of the suggestions there help you. But so far, nothing has worked for me. I hope Mark Uniacke, or someone else from HIARCS will come to our aid and supply a work-around or a patch for this problem. ...Milton Zucker...
