Yes, that's me, and I'm still working on it. The stuff I'm talking about is part of the CD-ROM. What it really is is a full set of freeware tools and programs for SCO, rather like the System V.4 CD-ROM I brought out a few years ago. The delay was caused by the emetic development environment and the problems it entailed. But it's going to be finished Real Soon Now. Greghome | help
