<br><font size=2><tt>In my experience, yes, exactly as you describe, the
1.8SL11 version of<br>
grads is not compatible with those PRINTIM flags, although the index<br>
clearly states 1.8 or later.<br>
</tt></font>
<br><font size=2><tt>However, I can confirm that the latest release, 1.9b4
available in the<br>
downloads section, does indeed support those flags and it works great.<br>

<br><font size=2><tt>As for when the release will be available for Windows
I cannot say. My<br>
experience is with the Intel / LINUX binaries.<br>
