Hi Erik,

did you try g_rdf? For some reason it doesn't work for me and gives  
segmentation fault. I have no idea what the reason is (I us 3.5.1_pre2)  
- perhaps I did some error in the installation, or my .cshrc is wrong.  
Help would be appreciated. Everything else seems to work. Which  
compiler flags did you use? Did you try this -fast flag? Somehow it  
didn't work for me. Doing nothing with the flags worked (except for  
g_rdf...).
Cheers,
Kay.
