I was NOT trying to state that he is doing a poor job. What I was trying to do was find out what changes were made to 2.7 that I had not noticed so that I could make those changes to my version if I thought they would be useful to me. I have changed the name of my version to VT100 2.6/jrbii.x, where VT100 2.6 states that this is what I started with, jrbii means this is my version, and .x is the version number of my mods. The reason I "hacked up" this code was for my own personal use, but I figured that others may be interested in some of the features that I incorporated that is why I posted the message stating it was available if people wanted it. I suppose that trying to make things that I feel are useful to others is not in the AMIGA spirit??? LONG LIVE AMIGA!!! keep up the good work Dave Wecker and Tony Sumrall p.s. I didn't get your mail message, Tony -- John Barshinger Space Telescope Science Institute Baltimore, MD 21218 plink:jrbii | bix:jrbii | barsh@stsci.edu
