Sorry it took a little while to respond. My inbound email connection

That is rather odd. I just tried it with pre12 and it worked fine.
Can you try it again with --debug and send me the output? That is
arx get --debug address@hidden/dists--arx--1.0 arx
Also, did you build it with the build-arx script, or did you use
SCons? Did you specify anything on the configure line besides prefix?

Ack. You're right. I changed things around, but didn't update the
page. You should use
arx build-config complete/arx.arx
I've fixed the webpage. Thanks.

I'm still working on it. I added a new command "naming-convention".
I also just finished rewriting dopatch. Now I just have to debug it ;)
