I do have the Camel book, and the Llama book, as well as several others. I had taken a couple courses a while back and bought a few, then got rusty, so now jumping back in.

I will try what you say about the BBedit saves...been using BBedit forever, but hadn't ever needed to do that so didn't even know about it.

I am reading ahead about diagnostics and 'strict' and such, and plan to write a script to ferret out the issue. I wrote here first just to make sure there wasn't one of those answers like, "Oh yea, in OSX you gotta have the comments bit set to one...sheesh!" Know what I mean? :-)

Many thanks!
