RiScript 5.02 - won't close either files or windows.

Doh. :-(

Is it just me??

I downloaded the 5.02 version of RiScript and copied it over the
existing copy (5.01, 9 Aug 05).

It loaded a trial PDF fine, and (with some glee) I opened the Choices
for the advertised new feature of files being closed when closing an
open window, which was always a major shortfall in previous versions.

I ticked 'Automatically close file when closing window' and Saved,
feeling rather smug.

But on clicking the close icon, I got an error message -

"Internal error, no stack for trap handler: Divide by zero, pc =
FC166AC8 registers at 00037EDC"

RiScript thereafter only showed an empty window, and dragging PDFs to
it produced the "Flushing : rest of job (to EOF) will be ignored"
message.

Quitting and reloading either 5.02 OR the previous 5.01 produced the
previous 'flushing' message, and the computer needed a RESET before
RiScript would function again.

After a reset, I altered the Choices back to 'default' (i.e. without
the 'Automatically close file when closing window' being ticked) and
tried to close a PDF file with the 'close-file' black square. At once
I got the same error message again!!!

So I can't close an open file with clicking on the black square in
default mode, and I can't close the window with the close icon when in
the new mode, either.

:-((

Anyone else having this, or what's going wrong?

I even tried a repeat new download and reinstall in case there was an
error in the download. No difference.
