Eric,

I glad to hear that it works on your system.

But why are Klaus and I unable to work with Spotlight? I have just 
upgraded to 10.4.2 and am using Rev 2.6.

Klaus: Thanks for confirming. Glad to know at least that I'm not 
crazy. Are you also using a PowerBook?

I did a search for MouseUp in Spotlight and got some results 
(including Read-me about 2.6 you mentioned) but there were no ".rev" 
files. Only some text and pdf files.

I this an issue for Bugzilla?


Jim
