You replied 14 Nov 2000, and sent a patch
(diff -u -B -b -r1.57 -r1.58)
which I applied by hand to fix my problem; thanks again for that.
There are some differences between the (-r1.57 <---> -r1.58) patch and
what you sent last night (Fri May 19 12:36:08 2000 <---> Mon Aug 21
02:18:36 2000) but they don't seem important.
Tiny suggestion: How about adding a CVS keyword ($Header$ or at least
$Id$) in a comment in the source so the version of the source files
can be identified by Joe Average Programmer.
Thanks again for replying (twice!) and for making your work available
through GNU.
Will
