Right now it's a tough decision for 10.3.9 support - personally I don't care for it, too much hassle. But for something released to the masses, I'll do my best to support what Apple supports. And come 10.5, my bet is that Apple drops 10.3.9 support. Let's hope that Apple does a more thorough job of providing backward compatibility this time. I've also been slowly migrating Macs (~40) where I work to Tiger, mostly as we buy new Macs with it. I hope I can finish by the Leopard release ^_^ No Python use yet, but someday maybe - if the GRASS GUI moves to Python. ----- William Kyngesburye <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.kyngchaos.com/ "I ache, therefore I am.
