20001213: sfcntr problem



Clint, 
the sfcntr help was taken from sfmap (since its the same program),
so that should look familiar, though I have expanded it in the 5.6a
release I will be making soon (which you will get from the
online docs).

I have run it here and its woreks. Have you tried specifying a
value for WEIGHT (eg 50), or using a different input file?

Generally the error "11" is related to trying to launch the device driver,
as if the DISPLAY variable wan't set. Have you tried cleaning out any message
queue and relaunching?

I still have to look at your VG problem. The location for directories used
in the menu are defined in the $GEMTBL/nmap/vgf.nmap. But Local is
the home working directory of the application.
