From which I inferred there is NO documentation on the subject available from Atari.. (I won't go into what I inferred about Neil Harris from this statement) About the ProGEM articles from Tim Oren... John Brochu, author of PICSWITCH] (among others), sent me the articles with the C code examples appended.. I've already uploaded them to Delphi, and if I could ever remember to, will send them up to CompuServe.. I dunno about submitting them to .binaries from Portal... "it's a complex subject, and I probably wouldn't understand it" If there's enough interest, I could probably give it a shot..! BobR
