[Snip] This has been discussed somewhere else (c.s.a.a?) and it was concluded that this is entirely a Fetch_NS issue. As I recall Fetch_NS, which is an Obey file didn't cope with unzipping NetSurf, just as you describe, and the solution was to preload SparkFS. I notice now that Frank de Bruijn has made a later version of Fetch_NS (2.20) available which makes sure SparkFS is on the icon bar before attempting to Install NetSurf. This works well here so thanks Frank. -- _____________________________________________________________________ Brian Jordan Virtual RPC-AdjustSA on Windows 8 RISC OS 6.20 _____________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe or subscribe goto: //www.freelists.org/list/davidpilling
