  Hi Michael, hi all,

currently, "make pdf V=1" fails as follows due to the bare ^

I think one of the approaches suggested at
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/77646/how-to-typeset-the-symbol-caret-circumflex-hat
should be applied.

I think the simplest would be to use \^{}  instead of ^, i.e.

Thanks,

Tobias

Bah, sorry.  My TeX became too rusty and I'll admit I don't have the

in the hope that somebody would scream if it was wrong.  Seems to have 
worked :-)  Thanks Tobias and Alan.

Ciao,
Michael.
