El Paso EE & CS Keywords: *** ERSETZEN SIE DIESE LINIE MIT DIENE NACHRICHT! *** Perchance, could someone tell me what the cryptic line: "He's dead, Jim." means? One of our users was trying to zap rogue's score file out of existence, and succeeded (somehow). The file was still there, but I had to re-install it to get rogue to start recording scores again. However, while it was not working, this message would be displayed occasionally when someone did a "rogue -s". Also, if someone could tell me why the person was able to make the file die even though he did not have write permission to it, I would be grateful. Thanks in advance. -- Bryan R.
