I gave up on trying to get an answer out of him about anything,
when I kept on reporting a bug that existed in every version of
Binkley, which enabled ANYONE to crash ANY version of it (any
caller that is).  It's fixed in BTPE though!

Yeah well, it's mainly for me.  If someone wants to report a 
problem, I'll take a look.  Or they've got the full source code
themselves.  BFN.  Paul.
