I see now that the error message isn't really "Point is not on a character file" (which I found very confusing), but instead "Point is not on a character in the file", which I think is OK. So I agree that there's nothing here to fix, and I'm closing this bug report. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
