Thanks to all the people below for bug reporting, bug fixes, suggesting
future enhancements etc...  The list is in the order in which I received
the help - earliest help first. 

If I have forgotten anyone, please let me know, and I'll rectify the problem.


Special thanks to Jaka Mele (jack@zrsss.si) for allowing me ftp space
