Pretend? Curious choice of words. Perhaps this, then, would be a good place for me to publicly thank the moderator here for his great assistance awhile back when I posted a lengthy file with bad line-wrap trouble. Not only did he contact me with the option of leaving it as it was or being able to correct it, but when I indicated some confusion on the whole deal he went to the trouble of cleaning it up himself before officially posting it, saving everyone who looked at it later a lot of hassle. I posted that same file to alt.ascii-art where it was available complete with line-wrap mess. Many thanks to Bob, for his care and concern. :) :*:':*:':*:':*:':*:':*:':*:':*:':*:':*:':*: -Varian- "I do what I do and I sure have fun." :*:.:*:.:*:.:*:.:*:.:*:.:*:.:*:.:*:.:*:.:*:
