Re: [EP-tech] ScreenProcessor.pm and Admin Screen Messages

Hi john,

I'll take a look today and attempt to use that method instead. I've tried
to understand pins since I first started looking at EPrints last year, but
never been able to fully understand them. Which is frustrating because they
aren't a particularly difficult thing.

I would have looked yesterday, but I managed to totally break my test
server and I spent the day trying not to have a heart attack due to panic
(it's all fixed now).

Thanks,
James
