Hi Martin,

Aha! - but ......
On trying the 32bit DOS version as a x-check, no "?" or "ticks"  
appear.
And - when I attempted to use the Archive Viewer to look into  
known decent .ZIPs etc., I got loads of error messages suggesting  
that the archives were faulty :(

In the DOS version's "altering on the fly" of the language
module, i.e. Config/Options/Language, instead of seeing a choice
between German and English -
I got 2 lines of "(c) Peter Mandrella" to choose between.
Although confusing, it did change the contents of the .RSP file  
OK.

TTFN,

Archie
