I am using some ECLiPSe code which calls out to GAP and the GAP part was not working properly, the GAP bit was not likely to stop, so I didn't think the abort button would work. Hence I used the "X" button. In this case I think this course of action is necessary. Warwick conjectures that it stopped the tkeclipse process, but not the interrupt process, so it could not be recreated next time. This seems to make sense. > Also, what OS was she using?

I was mainly using Windows XP at the summer school to test for any bugs for you guys and also I had Java working better there.

The only reason I am using this account, and not my academic one is that I am visiting St Andrews :-) Karen -------------------- talk21 your FREE portable and private address on the net at <a Target='_new' Href='http://talk21.btopenworld.com/redirect.html?http://www.talk21.com'>http://www.talk21.com</a> -------------------- talk21 your FREE portable and private address on the net at http://www.talk21.comReceived on Thu Jun 19 14:56:46 2003
