I had heard that this problem was related to the version of pico installed with pine. They tossed out a new release/patch/whatever which had it fixed. The make clean/make might work since it would take a version from the ports, but the version from pine. Mark Dickey mark@bestweb.net -----Original Message----- From: Andrew E.
