G'Day Paul,

-=> Quoting Paul Edwards to Frank Adam <=-

 PE> Some of the code I saw from him had this abortion in it.  I
 PE> don't know if he changed his spots, this was a few years ago.
I think he may have, but then again i only go to the snippets library for 
ideas not code, so i couldn't care less about his spots.

 PE> There is a difference between a Borland Fan and a Borland
 PE> Fan Bum Chum.
Ah yes, i was going to ask about that, but i saw it in another msg since.
 
 PE> I'm sure he does, although I am very suspicious about the mind
 PE> that writes "void main".
I've _never_ done that:)
 
 PE> won't send a message to the host until you press enter (or a
 PE> function key or a couple of other keys).  Pressing the letter
 PE> 'A' will never send a message to the MVS host.  BFN.  Paul.
  FA> Lost me there completely :) But i suppose it would be 

 PE> FREQ ANSI_C.* from me and you will have the standard.  FREQ
 PE> my FILES list and then you'll have the name of the rationale,
 PE> and you can get that too.
I've got it already, but haven't had the time to read through it yet.:( 

 PE> Before or after you hit  if you type "hello
there"?
 PE> Most likely you don't get the "h" until after you have hit CR,
 PE> because it is line buffered.  On some systems you will be able
 PE> to switch off the line buffering, making it unbuffered, so you
 PE> get the "h" straight away.  On other systems you cannot switch
Oh,ok i didn't know about this, my routine picks chars off the keyboard 
using getch(), that i believe should work on most systems.
