Many schemes were discussed, I can't remember them all but I'm sure you're right.

Well report-emacs-bug just seems to look for three dots: (string-match "\\..*\\..*\\." "22.0.98.1") 2 (string-match "\\..*\\..*\\." "22.1.1") nil (string-match "\\..*\\..*\\." "22.1") nil What are the other files? Do they just test for three dots also? -- Nick http://www.inet.net.nz/~nickrob
