Hi, I see the same behaviour as Stephen. Since Jiri doesn't see it, I suppose it may be connected to a cint/gcc2.96 issue... I tried to look at the generation of the kTRUE variable, but didn't find anything obvious. Furthermore, if one replaces "kTRUE" by "true" everywhere in a script, everything seems to work. But if a variable was set with kTRUE, even resetting it with 1 or "true" doesn't work. Weird. Stephen, is it a big problem for you to change in your scripts "kTRUE" to "true" or 1 ? At least until we all have gcc 3 ;-) If it is a problem, I must admit I'm stuck here unless a cint expert takes the case. Cheers Damir P.S. I too do not want to give up on my Mac !
