Hi, Jochen,

Your configure script breaks for Remind >= 04.00.00

This code:

   AC_MSG_CHECKING(remind version)
   REMINDVERSION=`strings $REMINDPATH | grep 03\.0`

fails for 04.00.00 and later.

I think a better way to check for Remind's version is:

   REMINDVERSION=`(echo 'BANNER %'; echo 'MSG [version()]%') | $REMINDPATH -`

Definitely a lot more reliable than running strings on the executable.

Regards,

Dianne.
