I was wondering if idiocy was my problem there, I don't see the 
directory though:

[nimbus2:project/hmake-3.08/targets] tatd100% ls -la
total 0
drwxr-xr-x   3 tatd100  staff  102 Jul 29 10:42 .
drwxr-xr-x  14 tatd100  staff  476 Jul 29 10:43 ..
drwxr-xr-x   7 tatd100  staff  238 Jul 29 10:44 powerpc-Darwin6

Am I being incredibly stupid here?

Thanks
