yep, that's relative, but my point was that absolute paths would stop
files going astray. But then I always assume any tar file uses
absolutes and I extract with the GNU version of tar which allows you
to override the absolute paths, so that wouldn't be foolproof either
:)

I just wonder why it has to take SO LONG for the remote QF installs? I
wouldn't mind using the I/A installer, but w/ many remote boxes it
just takes too long some times.
