Hi Nicolas, Thanks for your finding and the patch. While we are at the subject of making it more readable, perhaps I could ask you convert dh_usrlocal to use the "hashref" based autoscript? That should avoid the need for the "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"-mess we currently have. Also, many thanks for the other bugs you have filed recently. I am very grateful that you have included patches in them. :) Thanks, ~Niels
