I have also problems using long groups names.When nmaes of groups are long, Kix fails to run and displays a shrtly error message in a DOS windows but I'm not able to see the message.
Even in Windows 98SE or Windows 2000, i have the same problem.
I can't une debug mode, Kix refuse to work !
I use latest version of Kix.
It's urgently for me that you fix this problem.
