Don't get it...

I want to maintain strict control over the code.  I prefer not to bounce it
around through a public network.

Unfortunately I cannot post source since it would use some calls to LIBs
that I have written.  These libs contain proprietary HPFS stuff and I will
not distribute them.  However, my original offer stands for someone that
has FTP access and email.  I will make available a limited use binary.

All the program does is access the disk underneath the file system,
logically speaking of course.  Direct sector reads and writes are not
coordinated like a standard DosOpen() call.  As for HPFS being the file
system -- no problem.

Is that an EXTRUDER in your pocket or are you glad to see me?
