No, someone suggested it, but I'm not willing to overlay yet another OS/shell!

Yes, true.  However, if I have to rewrite for 32, why not for 64?

I should have it here.... Yes, I do. I can send it to you....

Yup -- I've got a VM running, but there are a few disadvantages, and the
challenge of moving ahead is, um, interesting. :-)

I do appreciate your help - honest!


Cheers... Dallas
