sometimes when you have something which doesn't work you need to ask
"dumb" questions. this lets you get a higher confidence in area's and
let you turn the magnifying glass on other area's where there is a
higher probability of finding the problem. when i used unix 10 to 15
years ago there was ALWAYS a white space or some non alphabet
character between parameters, say a non alphabet character if the
parameters were associated. i did try numerous permutations before
posting.

The problem was screen size/fontsize/font....don't know exactly.

I have seen advertisements for programmers where they include "social
competence" as a requirement. do you know why?

these file names were from the GNAT user guide tutorial.
