Lo,

Just to say - no hurry for me. And thanx for the time and effort going
into this
stuff.  I thought you were much older (like with gray hear and a hard
blue beard),
but finishing of University puts you a bit younger...
I'll check the code - just did not have many time lately myself - but
anyway. What
do you expect from someone not married too long ;-)? and having a lot
of work on
the house etc. etc.

Anyway, the workaround I have done for the screen centering thing (I am
a lot
of a manual guy - probably why I like Linux so much) is to maximize the
thing,
switch to the lower res mode and center the thing manually.  not too
bad for
a start.  I am not the worlds #1 programmer, but will give the thing a
shot.

Anyway,
best for the Varsity thing (what are you studying)

Regards,

Jan Tait
