When I put elm 2.3 PL6 into production at AMD, I increased the hash size for the aliases. On my test copy of the sources I did not make the change... Well guess what... after applying patch 8 on my private copy, the hash tables would not match and thus I did not see alias resolution. Once again, thank you, Syd. I just acknowledged that I got better support form the Elm team than what I get from some vendors for a substantial fee!!

Hear, here.... getting a 48-hour "factory" bug-fix on the problem in PL7 is a lot better than you'll get from most commercial servicecritters.... and on the net and free, too. No having to rip open the FedEx package and head for the machine room to load the tape.... just :patch, !make, and reinstall. Gee, now if it could only be that convenient with some of the commercial types I know.... -- Glenn R. Stone glenns@eas.gatech.edu satisfied ELM user/admin
