I ran the REPL, a GS program, and newLSIP edit. No problems.
Thanks for the update!

				Hi Lutz,
Thanks for the release...
A remark though... process does not work anymore.. :-)
(Linux slackware 11.0)

Where do I look in the C code for the change? Because the p_process function did not change...
PS1: this is strange...
(process "newlisp") does work, but I cant get back to the original ROOT
newlisp when I quit the second one with Ctrl-D. The Root is a ghost now (no defunc btw!)
I think its a TTY/Terminal setting issue...Im lookig at it...
Regards,
Norman.
