It matters in LINUX

OK,
tried it all again. but still no joy.
I had already put the script into the ..maps/Local directory but hadn't
changed the permissions so I did that. No go.
Had a CLOSE look at the script, but I'm no Perl programmer I can tel you.
There was a print line commented out which would give me a clue how far
the script was getting

Run it

So it gets to the Print "Looking for $try_filename\n";
Not sure what the next line does but somehow I think the

Attached is the .inf in question.
Had to resend, koala didn't like the .inf extension!
