Hey Peter,
    So I have argus-clients-3.0.0.rc.9.tar.gz on the server.  It  
should have
the argus_os.h fix for apple, which worked fine, and a lot of fixes for
printing out all the fields.   I added a ra.print.all.conf  
configuration file
in ./support/Config, and ra() prints all the fields correctly, well,  
at least
the labels, field separator, and errant white space removed.    Some
of the fields don't print anything yet, but I'll fix that very soon.

Thanks!!!!!

Carter
