Hmm, I guess it was the pointer?

BTW, is there any way to tell what file has been retrieved by KNewStuff?  From 
what I could tell in KHangman, you have a single data-processing command that 
parses whatever was downloaded.  I would like to do different things 
depending on what was retrieved.  Is it possible? 

thanks again,
Jason
