[Warnes, Jason SktnHR]

Oh sure, I suppose if you want the option to work right you need to spell it
right hey?  :-)  Sorry about that.  Nice catch though.  I should really look
closer when I send a message.

Now this may be a coincidence, but I'll mention it anyway:

That's two times it has been spelled incorrectly. Might there be a problem
there?

GPRINT shouldn't have any affect on the graphing exponents, so this one is a
loss for me.  I've used the --unit-exponent switch before with no problems
on Windows NT/2000/XP and Linux.  Mind you I've been using it with the
RRDTool Perl module and not right from the command line, but that shouldn't
make a difference.

i did have --units-eponent=1 but i changed it to 0 and it has made no
difference. I don't know if this has anything to do with it but my GPRINT
statements use sprintf-style formatting like:

GPRINT:b:LAST:"Current\: %8.2lf %s"
