Cool, see you never know who is lurking out there. -- With reasonable voice, Kieseyhow (K-man) A handy trick, to avoid your friends becoming the target of a Spammer's email scanner, is to fill in their email address into the 'Bcc' field of your email client. Effectively limiting most Spam email scanners. Also, this prevents casual noting of private addresses, and the infamous 'Reply to all' messages that we all dislike. Nothing in the world is more dangerous, than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-68), civil rights leader. Strength to Love , pt. 4, ch. 3 (1963).

Verified to work even in Win64. Compressed CBM Basic code is such a beautiful work of art... Wow! The difference between writing C64 Basic and Vizhul Basic: C= programs work right on the first try, while Win programs never work right. ('Course, this comes from a die-hard Geos 2.0-64 user. No GPF's here...) BTW, the quick and dirty way to do a locate in CBM Basic is as follows: PRINT "{clr/home}{down-arrows x times}{right-arrows y times}"; (Always use right-arrows because spaces erase.) It never takes more than 72 characters, plus the program line number, so it stays legal.
