Oh, thank you, I didn't know brightside. I don't know whether I or
my girl-friend use something else specific to sawfish ... but I'll
have a look at brightside!

Thanks again! I really thought Jeff was just kidding in
<20050228225720.GF9674 at localhost.localdomain> =). I will investigate

Thanks for your answer!
