Kev,

You would have to be really good at C (like Pete ;-) to whip up small things
quickly. I have been working extensively with C the last few months, but when
it comes to quick stuff I still use either asm or basic. At least for me, a C
program takes longer to get to the point where it actually does something.
Maybe its all in my head, but it seems that a C program needs a lot more
thought put into the intial design. You test stuff in basic, then rewrite it in
asm, I test it in asm (sometimes basic) then write it in C! Each to his own, I
guess. :-)

Bill
