Damn fine!! There were times I would of paid twice the price of the 3.1
compiler just for that one litte thing...I'm a big fan of IBM asm
programming (the only one that's challenging ).

Just for future savings... How exactly does one go about doing that? Can anyone?

Have you noticed any bugs that threw you for a loop ? I don't wanna spend
the time messing with something if I can find out in advance it's a bug...
Messed with reading fp. numbers from files for half a day before saw tiny

mouth watering... Well, after the borland knocks I've read, it's refreshing
to see someone's happy with it, as I've allready ordered it... supposed to
be in tuesday now...
        How is it in calgary now ? It's still kinda chilly here in the
nations's capitol.
