The .png cannot be zoomed to inspect details, but for 2 days work, looks better than I expected. And thats encouraging. Are you intending to be able to translate an existing, working config into this, and to be able to take this back to working .ini + .hal files? Not necessarily the originals, but perhaps order optimized that still do the exact same job? That would, I believe, make logic mistakes in the original .hal easier to spot. Face-palm moments, those. :-) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
