That's true, and I did it, but perhaps didn't explain it clearly above
re 'terminal'. When I did absolutely *nothing* happened - just went
back to the prompt, [and yes, beagle-search was/is in usr/bin]. NO
info at all... That's why it was rather a puzzle.

But in a note I recently wrote, it was resolved by a restart, so I
won't be able to do more analysis - I HOPE - because that would imply
it will quit again, which I hope it does not. :-)

I really appreciate your reply and help, though.

Thanks,
