Sorry, I put it slightly misleadingly. What I meant is "unless you 
know what to look for, apparently nothing happens". It took me some 
time to realise that I could indeed see all the things you mention. It 
is slightly unnerving, though, to wait for the time that NS takes to 
quit and start up, and I thought I was getting more patient in my old 
age!

With best wishes,

Peter.
