After I found out that Rescue 2.0(.3) (shareware) worked under executor, I 
ordered it.  Great work guys!  It runs very nicely on my linux 486-50 
CirrusVLB.

I noticed however that the 'Help' window is truncated badly.  There is a 
selection box with topics in it you can click on that is mostly missing, 
as is the bottom of the window.  Luckily hitting 'Return' gets rid of it.
Similarly the mission report dialog is truncated.  Might this be the same
problem as in Stuffit?

Also has anyone figured out the tractor beam?  It's supposed to be 
activated with the tilde/backtick key, but doesn't work for me.  Probably 
a key mapping problem.

I'm using kernel 1.1.94 and executor linux 1.99p5.  I'm about to try out 
p6 tonight, looks like a *lot* of great enhancements to the browser!
Oh, svgalib 1.2.7.

Again, great work!  - Daniel
