Well, it does for me now, too.
It didn't at first, and so I spent some time digging through the epix
internals until I finally figured out that I had somehow managed to
mount my drive without allowing executables to run on it. So I fixed
that, and now it works great. I also changed the "ln -s" to "cp -p" in
elaps and flix; it seems to work too.
Thanks for fixing this, and so quickly. I'll be spending part of
tomorrow typing some notes, and this will save me some time.
