I saw it the first time, and saved it, thanks, but I'm keeping it as an
absolute last resort. I already have a later version of libc5 on my system,
and if I downgrade that, what *else* is going to break? Plus, will I now have
to reinstall that file every time I upgrade Linux? <sigh> I thought this kind
of crap only happened in windows ...
Guess I'll have to look for a way to at least be able to *view* and maybe
cut-n-paste from wordperfect files and do my actual work in
SOffice/KWord/AbiWord.
