Thanks Martin, I will have a look. One other question is to do with the Mac OSX platform. I noticed that extension modules are compiled down to dll's - what form do they take on the Mac platform, or can they even be created? I seem to remember reading that these modules can be created for UNIX based systems - am I right?
