Well, excuuuuuuuuuse ME! So, since you don't have the time to decode
the stuff and look at it the rest of us should be deprived of having
some potentially neat stuff to play with on our Amigas. Well, who died
and left YOU king, anyway?!?!

Folks, if you've written some good stuff and want to post the uuencoded
binary to it, do so by all means! My guess is that for evey one of the
people who don't want it there are lots of us who *do* want it, and we'll
be happy with the binary form if that's all you want to divulge.

(Note: of course I'd rather have the source, but with the Amiga and
the various incompatible C compilers, the source may not be of much
use anyway! :-) )
