Yes, it does.

Again, Thank you.
I'll dig into the subject in greater detail as soon as I get the work
completed.
By the way, does anyone have a good basic tutorial that explains to NON
programmers how to troubleshoot seg fault errors? I have a bunch of
people including myself that have asked to understand this subject.
I often use strace and similar but there must be many better ways.
Thank you,
matthew
