I can't imagine what I did to get my name attached to that thread (it's been years since I wrote anything in Applesoft). I have messages back to the beginning of the month, but I haven't found the origin of that bit of Applesoft. I don't recall commenting on the original program; there might have been something else along with it that I responded to, but ordinarily, I'd edit out other stuff (such as BAS program lines). Ain't newsgroups a hoot?
