Hi, Graham.
I could find no sign of it in the usual directories. Having a search on the
web, this seems to often be connected with using Spyders, and we haven't got
one. I also have the same thing happening on two separate machines - it is just
possible that I may install some test software that stuck it somewhere unusual
on one of them, but I doubt if it happens on both. So, I am about as sure as I
can be that that is not it.
I am sure the real clue lies in the fact I can run it under 'su root' but not
under 'su'. I shall work on that. I have tried all the different 'sudo' options
to try and get the environments and shells to match.
Thanks.
Richard Kirk
