Collins, Co. Lines: 20 To forestall poissible confusion: On the 800, the broadly available most current release is 1.2, with 2.0 "just coming out". On the 300, the most current release is 6.0. On the 500, the most current release is 5.2. The 300 and 500 were in sync for a while, but with the reduced level of support on the 500... . Further discussion to comp.sys.hp. Perl up to but not including patch level 28 works on the 300; no comment on the 800. (The System V problems reported on the net a few weeks ago appear to be the problem with this. I havn't tried the fix yet. Looks like Beta 2.0 or 2.0 is the best bet for now.) Donn Terry HP USO
