I thought I had read someplace that the .grb format was supposed to be its std input? Aha, its .gbx files it wants, and even some of those give parse errors. I feel like I'm getting smarter, but its way past breakfast time & I'll probably have to retrain myself if I take a break. :) I do see one problem with it, don't put any text into the copper, it breaks each letter into an isolated spot. That is a waste of time & bits. Anyway, like the 30 year old tv commercial for GE, progress, our most important product. ;-) Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
