      Hello Kees!              Friday February 22 2013 11:58, Kees van Eeten wrote to Timothy Cornett:               KvE> I think all options should now be written with a dash in stead of a        KvE> slah.

This       simplifies the command line processing significantly on systems that use the /       character as a path separator. For the sake of consistency, the change was       applied to all versions.              Andrew              ---        * Origin: Bits & Bytes BBS * V.Everything! * 860/535-4284 (1:320/119)    |
