Geoff is writing about "UNIX and Real-Time", which he knows a lot about. He states that quite clearly. Also note that he says he does not have access to the sources. How do you expect him to go and read them? ( at least Geoff *can* read! ) I know that he has in the past had access to many different Unix sources, and has read them. He probably just wants to refresh his memory. -- I admit it! I don't believe in Mary Worth! I Lied! HaHaHaHaHaHa!!!!!!
