Don't think expect is the right way to do this - best would be to use an ssh key (seem to remember that is how I used to do this back when i was on Linux with Metacard), or else to write a bash script as a text file and then get rev to execute that. On 11 June 2010 16:33, Andre Garzia wrote: > J

For what it's worth, I've noticed the same thing. Even more interesting is that it's not in the stack itself where the image is darker. If I load up the same stack on a Windows machine the images display brighter (correctly) and the RGB values are correct. I use Snow Leopard as well. Jeff M. On
