Thank you Manu. It works!
BTW, I'm really liking EiffelBuild. Aside from a few quirks, mentioned in earlier posts, it's easy to learn to use and work with. It has crashed on me a few times, during pebble drag & drop operations, but I'm writing that off as a result of the very old computer I'm running it on. (The computer was rescued from the landfill only by installing Ubuntu Linux on it.) If you want, I can send or post the dump it generates, the next time it happens. Otherwise, it's good, EiffelBuild!
