     Hi.

    What revision are you got, what steps for reproduce?

    Have you defined alias for "oops" command? 

    I didn't test for Linux, but I seems that should work ...

    For APD worked, but I was not going a full testing, and didn't test last revisions.

     

    PS I think I see where the error...
