Only the programer can fix this? Should I report this to Martin (the developer)? I opened the file in emacs, and it starts out as a bunch of garabge, then there is the line: package __par_pl; and it becomes readable. It's ugly, does that make it perl? (Just kidding. I know a little php and had to throw that...) Dotan Cohen http://English-Lyrics.com/ http://EnglishLirics.com/
