I can understand Tony's feelings on this subject.  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
