Does anybody knows if sdbm (perl-5.6.0) is still unable to cope with arbitrary length records, or if gdbm is still required for l2h ? As you might have guessed, I will very soon put a preinstalled version of l2h-99.2beta8 for fptex/texlive5-win32 users. Look into : ftp://ftp.dante.de/pub/fptex/0.4/setupw32/ Thanks for the clue if anybody knows about this problem, -- Fabrice Popineau
