: I downloaded gnuchs40.zip, unzipped it, and put the three files noted in
: the readme file into a subdirectory called "MISC."  It gives an error message
: on the order of "NO LANGFILE." I have tried multiple combinations directory
: and subdirectory names and still the same error message. Could you give some 
: more explicit instructions?

Sorry about that folks.  It seems that I hardcoded the MISC directory
instead of making it relative.  Get the new gnuchs40.zip again at
valkyries and it will work fine.


Stuart,

The bug fixes that was mentioned in my README file has all been taken off
this list or have been reported to Mike.  I have nothing new at the
moment.  Sorry for any inconvenience caused to you.
