      Hi! Wilfred,              On 23 Aug 16 14:03, you wrote to me:               PQ>> It has needed a fix for nearly 14 years.

IIRC, it's standard C and only       intended as a DOS app. The outstanding... longstanding required fix is in the       @via line loop, where the 'buffer' isn't cleared after each line is written.        You might have noticed the flaw in the response to your PING(?).              It ought to be FREQ-able as "pingproj" (without the quote marks). You may get       a giggle out of the hamfisted coding.              Cheers,       Paul.              ... At the prompt, remove disk, spit on it, then retry.       --- Paul's Win98SE VirtualBox        * Origin: Quinn's Post - Maryborough, Queensland, OZ (3:640/384)    |
