Great :-) ; I'll assume that (perhaps because it was noticed by
Rob 26jul2009 ?) it got into the sox TODO list and was fixed.
In the unlikely event it's not fixed when I get upgraded to
14.3.1, then I'll worry about it.

/bin/bash

Of course, all the time.

I think I'll just assume it was fixed in the transition from
14.3.0 to 14.3.1

Thanks for your help,  regards,  Peter Billam
