This is quite true. I have found that by the time anything is posted here, it is a hundred years old. It is a lot more useful to go to your neighboor BBS and get a newer copy. If the utility is useful, then the copy you get will probably be more recent. Mike Mitchell myxm@lanl.gov ...!cmcl2!lanl!myxm
