The theme throughout that was to find out what Shell you were running which could explain the anomolous behaviour and to actually see the script you were running, how you ran it, and any output messages.
We are unwilling to embark on another guessing game. I don't even think we managed to find out what Operating System you had - only that you were using "tcsh".
Methyl,
I apologise and I see where you are coming from. I understand and all I can say is that I am sorry that my knowledge when it comes to unix is not the same as yours, I apologise for ever thinking I could further it by asking questions, I apologise for having the nerve to come onto this forum in the first place, I apologise for not having told you clearly enough in post 9 on that thread that I was using Solaris, but most of all, I apologise for having found out the problem and found the solution, and then having the bloody nerve to ask why it works like that.
I hope with time you can forgive me, and that one day you will realise the world is also full of people who are not as brilliant as you. Next time please try not to put someone down, as thats how I feel. I have just got off the phone from my mother, adn she would like ot apologise for ever giving birth to me.
Regards

wmgrabimage
WMGRABIMGAE(1) General Commands Manual WMGRABIMGAE(1)
NAME
WMGRABIMGAE - Dockable WWW Image monitor.
SYNOPSIS
wmGrabImage [-h] [-display <Display>] -url <Image URL> [-http <URL>] [-c] [-delay <Time>]
DESCRIPTION
wmGrabImage is a WindowMaker DockApp that maintains a small thumbnail copy of your favorite image from the WWW. The image to monitor is
specified via the "-url <Image URL>" command-line option and it gets updated approximately every 5 minutes. The update interval can be
overridden via the "-delay <Time>" command-line option (Time is in seconds).
Each of the three mouse buttons can be double clicked with the following effects;
Left Mouse:
Brings up the full-sized image in xv.
Middle Mouse:
Sends a URL (specified via the -http <URL> command-line option) to an already running netscape process or in a new netscape process
if there arent any running.
Right Mouse:
Updates the image immediately.
OPTIONS
-h Display list of command-line options.
-display [display]
Use an alternate X Display.
-url <Image URL>
The URL of the WWW image to monitor.
-http <URL>
The URL to send to netscape via a Middle double click.
-c Center the image vertically within the icon.
-delay <Time>
The time between updates. The default is about 5 minutes.
FILES
The original sized image and the thumbnail XPM image are both stored in ~/.wmGrabImage/ which gets created if it doesnt already exist.
SEE ALSO
wget and the ImageMagick convert utility.
BUGS
Who knows? -- its still Beta though. (Let me know if you find any). Oldish versions of the ImageMagick convert utility have a memory leak
-- if you have that problem, upgrade to the latest version.
