I wrote the code entirely in Basic 7.0 (no extensions like Basic 8 etc.)
and compiled it with Abacus Software's Basic 128 (it's a combination of 
P-Code and Machine Language)
     As for the FTP site, I will probably send it to Scott Stephen
who will place it on Milton.
     I got adventurous last night and provided the command % LPR filename &,
that is, background printing.  I'm having slight problems with where
and when to dump to the printer so everything else is unaffected (I 
promise that's the last thing I'll write before uploading it... I'm
sure everyone's getting itchy!)
     I might also consider TARing and COMPRESSing the files, 
then UUENCODING them and mailing them to everyone on the list, since
it'll save everyone the effort of getting onto Milton.
