Dear InterView(er)s,

I'm a brandnew member of the InterViews family. And I've got a bunch of
questions concerning iv, life and everything...

Maybe some kind soul out there will answer some of them, or point me to
an ftp'able solution on a site (iv@somewhere).

* I installed iv-2.6 from our local ftp-server on my system (sun4)
  using g++ 1.37.1
	
* I ran into problems even compiling the tutorials (t0-t9)
  which include some code like:

		(
		...
		Hbox(...),
		);       ^
		         this gets a nice compiler (parser) error from g++

  I think g++ is right on this, but I cannot understand, why there seem
  to be errors like this, in an official distribution. (Does the AT&T C++
  compile this right?)
  Any idea?

* while on the interviews-server (iv@stanford.edu) a found some TeX docs
  and some postscript tutorials tut1.ps, tut2.ps which our QMS Laser
  doesn't like to print (he's just busy thinking some time, then gets
  fed up and finally forgets about it).
  Does anybody have an idea why?

* Are there some proper tutorials available?

* Is there a newer release of iv available?

* when pressing the ifb QUIT-Button the application dumps core:

* What have I done wrong?


For those you care: thanx in advance!
