I think you might be right and getting to the bottom of it looks looks like
it'll
take a lot longer than I was counting on spending right now, so I think I'll
have to suspend this till I have more time to spend on it.
I didn't intend to install so many packages, and now that I have done so
accidentally, I haven't found an easy way to go back to the default
installation,
but if there is a way without starting over from scratch I'd be interested
in a
pointer to any documentation on it.
And your English seems near perfect to me. I wouldn't have known your
weren't a native speaker if you hadn't let on. Thanks for your help and
others who have helped also.
