Don't think it's the latter as the file I distribute on the CD-ROM is 
pretty much as I received from Andy. (It may have acquired a Mac icon 
in the resource fork, but DOS-based systems ignore that and only read 
the data fork anyway). I have also tried re-saving it from CADintosh 
and that creates a DXF file about twice the size. I suggest we 
exchange files at the Europa Club Committee meeting on Saturday so I 
can have the tri-gear on next week's CD-ROM.

regards

Rowland
