Yes.  I also see specific source aimed at the differing targets within it's own 
subdirectory.  I have noticed that same method of operation in other 
development projects as well, such as C-kermit.

 ST> I do not understand this stream of consciousness.

If a DOS, OS/2 solution already exists and people are happy with it then it 
seems to me that the development ought to be geared towards bringing the Unix 
specific code up to snuff.  Worrying about whether that specific code is 
portable is a waste of time in my humble opinion.

Life is good,
Maurice
