Certainly.  Your working on that too, ah?  Me, I have 2 reasons, 1 is
to get my diablo emulator running faster, and the other, is to set
words and notation on fiddle tablature.  There are a variety of things
other than these 2.

Yes, I probably could come accross diffrently.  In this specific
case, I deliberatly after several drafts, created the post that I
did, to have the effect that it had, though I didn't expect *QUITE*
such a venomous response, I figured that it might just shake someone'
out of the tree.....8=}

Generaly, I don't do those sorts of things.  Anyway, I'll go
try this *AGAIN* (even though I have tried it several times, and
never gotten it to work.  I even posted the code once.  I'll go
dig it up again.
)

Cheers
Woody
