- There is a bug in the distributed version. Last Spring when I discovered
- the problem someone told me there is a non-buggy version on one of the
- Catalyst CD Roms. The delivered one will work with some values.
-
- It has been so long since I ran it I cannot remember whether it will work
- with one or two or three fish. I just looked at my .fishrc file and it does
- not make any sense. I think I ran it with some really weird values to try
- and freak out the machine the last time I ran it.
-
- Good luck.
