With no respect to Tony, if you try this it might work, but if you try this it *will* bite you at some upgrade in the future. Libraries, RISC OS support modules, support files and pretty much anything can change between builds and I in no way want to have the support nightmare of people mixing and matching and rolling their own unknown versions of the program, and then complaining it doesn't work.
