<div dir="ltr"><div>Thanks for your reply, Pablo.</div><div><br></div><div>No I didn't change anything in my copy of Scilab. </div><div><br></div><div>The last time I used <em>actively</em> ATOMS was to reload a corrected Matlab-like plotting library which unexpectedly had ceased to be compatible with the graphic module which comes with Scilab. As that compatibility was vital to my projects I reported it and it was soon corrected. So ATOMS was well behaved <em>that </em>last time I had to use it.</div><div><br></div><div>This week-end I just wanted to add maybe an image processor and was <em>only</em> trying to find what was available when I noticed that ATOMS didn't work anymore.</div><div><br></div><div>Yes I tried what you say, even directly inserting one of the examples from Help concerning the atoms package to be on the safe side. Scilab reported that the atoms package was not available and then a catastrophic error occurred. Unfortunately I failed to copy the error message in time. When I tried to exit Scilab instead relaunched itself into a loop repeating that last exit command. I could only terminate it with the Task Manager by ending the tasks faster than they were added to the list of running ones! Not easy winning that race...</div><div><br></div><div>Given your second e-mail I'll try to reinstall Scilab again and report back to you not trying any new trick: <em>chat échaudé craint l'eau froide!</em></div><div><br></div><div>I fear that it might be related to a recent loadful of Microsoft automatic updates to my copy of Windows 7... </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks again and greetings from Sydney where Spring is back!</div><div><br></div><div>René.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 3:39 AM, Pablo Fonovich <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pablo_f_7@hotmail.com" target="_blank">pablo_f_7@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
