    I am sure this is right but I though this was a unix system - O well. The
    files and classes is question BrFSTra.. is a leftover from the
    Sonata program that did all the design tracking etc. It is in principle good
    algortihm for doing the tracking but has de facto been
    overridden by the BrFs.. etc. It would in fact not even work. My suggestion
    would be if Kris concure to delect this class from the
    directory- this should help the Mac setup and do not caise any other
    problem.
