Steve;

 Ahh... looking at the original AR file, you're right... I did modify my copy
to specifically look in the /dd/sys directory during a cleanup of my root dir.

  You can easilt modify the C source to emulate the B09 program by just
deleting the "/dd/sys" portion of the INFILE def.  That way your users will
have access to their own dates.file in their OWN data dir.

 re: messed up output on the WYSE

  I'm going after Pete's termcap files right now, and will see what I can do
to make it a bit less machine specific.
  In the meantime, if you wished you could do something like :

 s_len = strlen(name);
 for (pos = 0; pos <= (54 - s_len); ++pos)
    fputs (x20,1);       /* not too sure on this.. haven't tried it */ 

 in place of the CURSOR(x,y); statements.

  Don't have a clue where the stray ASCII chars are coming from.

  Will get back to you after perusing the Termcap stuff.

 ...Jim
