hi

ok, see the point, I just wanted to be fit to test over the network,
without installing the complete gambas 3 SVN. it is just a matter of
(bad) experience, to test as early as possible, even if the app is not
ready. in my MS-days I have paid with a lot of extra work, because the
software worked fine on the developer machine, and on a second
workstation it did not work at all. I will be patiently waiting for the
day when gambas 3 can be "packed" :) - still have one "clean" ubuntu-pc
around. for the moment I can test, and the app works fine on both PC's. 

I'll watch up for the size of the attatchment in the future, was not
quite aware of that.

thanks for your time and concern
regards
