ac> Right again.  But many (most?) Msged users aren't interested in recompiling 
ac> Msged.  And 99% of those who are interested already have a compiler for the 
ac> platform they operate under.  The 1% left don't deserve to recompile it,

ac> calculators.

ROFL!  Anyway, my hope is that more people will be interested in
recompiling the source, so that they can apply patches.  Also they
can debug problems that are specific to them, themselves that way.
BFN.  Paul.
