Apparently, MAKHOL doesn't actually insert actual space (0x20) characters LIKE THE DESCRIPTION IMPLIES, but rather just moves the pointers around (or whatever). So if you MAKHOL and don't actually poke real characters into the "spaces", mad filesystem damage happens. I was burning out my brain trying to figure out how a function with 2 arguments could get confused about them and the problem was what happens AFTER the function. :-( Willard -- Willard Goosey [email protected] Socorro, New Mexico, USA I search my heart and find Cimmeria, land of Darkness and the Night. -- R.E.
