Congratulations and thanks. I wondered whether the <AppleEvent> in that line, was because the saving was inhibited in the demo? Newbe question. BTW. is there a way of setting BBEdit to detect the -d switch and automatically push MacPerl to the front for debugging sessions? If that's not available, is there a way of adding it to a later release?) The references in the delta manual for debug all refered to Metrowerks debugger. I haven't read whether -e will be added to MacPerl 5.6 # ===== Want to unsubscribe from this list? # ===== Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to macperl-request@macperl.org
