To: Walter Bender <<a href="mailto:walter.bender@gmail.com">walter.bender@gmail.com</a>> Thank you very much :) it seems that i was out of synchronization as you said (maybe because i put back an old version when i reinstalled my computer, as i did not finish to test all features before its crash) The integration to the journal development is not hard : it's just that i'm a bit absent-minded Apologizes.

I'll send you the code I am running. Meanwhile, I am having trouble with opening a .gph file -- a mimetype issue of some sort.
