You can reply off Jonathan> the list if you like. It was too late at night when I wrote this, and I now see how you could interpret it exactly opposite of the way I intended it! What I was trying to say is that other than the free software community, and especially other than Cygnus, I see very little in the proper application of automatic testing of software. You guys *WROTE* dejagnu! You set the pace! I meant this to show the great example you are setting for the commercial software world. Sorry for the backwards way I said it. :-) -- -------- "And there came a writing to him from Elijah" [2Ch 21:12] -------- R. J.
