The only suite I tried was NAS but that was years ago. I've found "MuSe" and "NMM" on both FreeBSD and Linux, but still need some clues. thanks in advance, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org The 2.41a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php
