<--- end of jigsaw output --->

after this no resources are available, so you cant exit via /Admin/Exit,
you can only kill jigsaw by hand.
Seems that the index files are no longer available in the filesystem,
so I have to reinstall everything.
Is this a bug in DirectoryResource or is it me, doing the wrong thing
at the wrong time ?
The systems this happens on is:
- Linux (Kernel 2.0.25, libc 5.2.18)
- jdk (hmm, think a port of 1.0.2)
- running both Lynx and Netscape 3.0
