Mike, you gave me good advice before (use EMX). I've compiled the code at
school under unix and borland and it works fine. Something is wrong with
gcc2's io code. After I got EMX going I recompiled the same code and it
works fine (at home) too. Thanks for the help. Now if I can just figure out
how to drop to a SLIP from my BBS, I'll be happy.

Bill
