But it certainly isn't any better than the rubbish from Redmond. I use it frequently as the chief example in the "how not to write software" part of the courses I teach. It's not much use for anything else. (Unless you belong to the school that thinks that getting it half right some of the time is acceptable behaviour for software.) -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
