+1 on #2. Also, it should be smart enough to "associate" the correct header with the correct library. We don't want to link against gdbm but include db1's ndbm.h header :) If this means a 1.3.24 (and since we're tagged, it almost assuredly does) then it does.

We simply detect it and use it if required. =========================================================================== Jim Jagielski [|] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [|] http://www.jaguNET.com/ "A society that will trade a little liberty for a little order will lose both and deserve neither"
