Great, I'm glad to hear it.

Weird, I thought I already did that. It's done now.

Let's do this for the next release, since I have little time and need to
get this fix out as soon as possible. I know we talked about this
before, however, is there any way to generate a man page and a .txt from
a single document? This way, there is no duplication of information. If
there is a relatively easy way, I'd like to do that.

Thanks for the very quick response. If you don't mind, please try doing
a debian build again from CVS. This has the latest autoconf/automake
changes. If you have good results, I'll probably do a release later
today.

Thanks,
