Well installing that scared the shit out of me. There are no binaries for 
linux that I can see and to install it from src files is an apparent 
nightmare. I did download some files but at ech one it needed something else 
and it would not compile without another thing or doing it a way I had no 
idea about. Why so damd complicated ? Guess that i am getting to the stage 
where I know some things and others are beyond my capabilities, pity!

Thanks anyway.
