Yes, that was it! :-)) Having followed up what you said I now realise what the relevant lines in the file mean. I'd previously just taken a 'blinkered' view of them wrt getting rpcemu running in the first place. BTW I've now written an article on rpcemu for Archive magazine that I hope may encourage others to give it a try. Should appear in a few issues time as they have a backlog of articles at present.
