k most people who have sent me mail have had a few questions.
(argh i don't know vi well)

I repeat: Ok, most people who sent me provate mail had a few questions

1) Am i writing a virus?

	No, the program is needed to securely erase hard drives at the company where i work (sorry they won't allow me to say where)

2) Why don't you use an existing package?

	I need to erase to govt specs and #2 the company wants me to create it!

So living within those guidlines any help would be greatly appreciated!
Anyone with some source code examples in C or pascal?
(AND for the last time people I have volume 1-5 of inside mac and read the
sections!)  I don't know what format the section pointed to by the call should
vbe in. Should it be a series of bytes composed of commands. If so how will
the call know when it has reached my last command. Or do i give one call for
each command?

thanks again
