Hi Ozz,

"Unzip"? ;)

Did the 1.59b do that? I don't think I ever used that beta version. The source
I got from the original author was for 1.60. I did quite a bit of
tweaking/improving/fixing/speeding-up on the maint code, but it's still based
on the original by Folkert, so kudos must go to him too! ;)

Well good luck with the porting from C to Pascal! ;)

You mean something like what is in the toss log file but in a more machine

Ehhrrr?

Bye, Wilfred.
