Ive also got everything up and running, great job btw, if i do a CVS update is best to make clean before the install ? or just install ask normal.

[Zeppo]

$ make distclean
$ cvs -z3 update
$ make -f Makefile.dist
$ ./configure && make
$ make install

"cvs -z3 update"

what is the -z3 stand for? I always thought this option was for version 3.x of SEQ, but then again I've never used SEQ, cvs or linux up untill a few weeks ago :o

mmm, the joy of reading the man pages for an app:

man cvs
