yes that is the latest. (guibuttons.php inside zip dated 23-04-07

It must be a cache thing. After clearing all cache history I get the
new version. This is annoying, and seems to affect the zip files
particularly, since the php files open as text in a new window tab,
and are always the latest.

Annoying as it must be a Firefox standard and will affect most Firefox
users, so they don't get the latest version.
