Here's my log file. To be sure that we are on the same terms, by "console" I am referring to a DOS window that starts up with ECS. It reflects the contents of main.log attached here. It isn't a big problem, but it would be nice to figure out what the difference is as these things have a way of coming back later. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Gilmore [mailto:mark1@markgilmore.net] Sent: Thursday, August 26, 2004 12:45 PM To: ecs@netbloc.com Subject: RE: [ecs] 2.3.19 released I have tried twice to re-create this problem, but no can do. The console log is hidden when ECS starts, and the tray buttons work as expected. ???
