Ok, first of all, there is going to be some PAIN getting this set up, but
if you're into source code, the PAIN is most certainly worth it.  You need
a program called "PATCH".  You can FREQ PATCH.ZIP from 3:711/934,
but I've personally only ever used it under OS/2, and under DOS you'll need
some support files I think, which are separately available for FREQ.

CH> i fell that this is a very good product and if it ever becomes shareware i

Well, since it is public domain, it is an ideal base for someone to use as
the basis of a shareware program, but if someone does do that, then they
will be creating a new stream of development (which they own), and the
public domain stream will continue on (probably with not as much
development), so you won't see what you stated, you'll actually see a
divergence.

Some of us would actually like to see end users contributing code though.

What is the effect of clicking on the area list entries in DOS16, DOS32 and
Windows NT?  Perhaps the routines are out by 1, and you will get the area
above or below in the latter 2.  BFN.  Paul.
