It all boils down to what we are testing and whether we care. At the moment it always passes even if it fails but the problem is that the die message is printed rather than the skip itself [it really does skip but the skip message is lost and overridden by the die message]. Would you be happier if we managed to work out why the skip reason was not being displayed? -- Tim Jenness JCMT software engineer/Support scientist http://www.jach.hawaii.edu/~timj
