Fred, I second Georg's comments on your positive contribution. I am from a
similar background to Georg; assembler on a Z80A, CP/M, GWBasic( and other
variants), Turbo Pascal...but then had a break and came back to VB6, tried
VC for a while but was forgeting more than I remembered between sessions so
fellback to VB6.
I can read C code and understand OOP but comparing my code to the developers
is like comparing a five year olds "What I did in the holidays" to
Shakespear.
Given this, if there is anything that I can help with (already discussed)
you and the other developers only need to ask
Thanks for your work...I dear say you don't hear this nearly enough for the
effort you are putting in!

Hi Fred,
if only I could I would :-)
No excuse, just to explain:
I started coding more than 20 years ago, at that time with 8080 (later
Zilog Z80A) Assembler first on a single board computer, later on CP/M OS.
Passing some BASIC years I got to the new Turbo Pascal 1.0 and then to
Delphi and since some months to Lazarus (Open Source multi platform Delphi
"clone"(not really).
All that long years I am now coding with Pascal/Derivatives and though it
is now an OOP language it is quite different to the C++ stuff.
I did some code-conversions from C++ stuff to Delphi, so I can read C++
quite well, but I cannot code it in the style you and all those
professional FG developers are using.
And over the years I got a pretty nice library of self-developed code what
makes it very comfortable to do the work.
This does not mean for the future I won't learn more in C++, whenever I
have some time I am now doing some homework with Code::Blocks/GCC but it
will last some time until I will be able to start some more serious work.
FGTools ist only sharing with other FGUsers what I developed for my own
use, not a serious contribution for FG. Some can use it, so I am lucky that
I could help a little. Not more.
Thank you for your hard work, Fred, you are really working like a devil (I
hope that means the same in English as in German, it is a *positive*
statement :-) )
Regards
Georg EDDW
