Entering “13:orcainclude:m=“ results in “:HD6:OR       A.2.0.4:LIBRARIES:orcainclude:m= could not be opened”.              Sounds like the wildcard routine can't find anything, so the program acts like       you didn't actually give it the final argument, and queries for a name.        Curious that it would work if specified on stdin but not the command line.              IIRC, APW/Orca are different from something like UNIX, where the shell       processes the wildcards and hands a full list of arguments to the program.        APW/Orca hand the wildcard to the program and let it iterate through the       possibilities itself. So if        something changed in the way wildcards are processed, that could cause things       to fail, but you'd expect it to cause most things to fail the same way.              If you "cat 13:orcainclude:m=", do you get a list of macro files from that       directory?              Backing up a step: why can't you use GSBug with Merlin?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
