Thanks to several users who read this list we have unveiled a small
bug of Jaguar which makes the System sometimes qualify valid an
actually improper file path name. This may induce failures of any
command which would be supposed to guess whether some parameter is a
string or a file path name given as a string.
Such is the case of Smile's "do script". "do script" used with a
sufficiently long string (maybe worse if the strings contains ":")
may crash Smile. A fix will be available very soon.
Emmanuel
