I would conjecture that it has to do with the fact that you do not have write permission in /home! The backslashed version just creates homemean_monthly_stl.eps in the current directory. If you substitute /tmp for /home, the problem goes away (provided you're on some kind of Unix/Linux -- you didn't say). It's still a bug of course. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
