Well, of course you should do that as well. But if it gets ignored and you receive data anyway, then this data should not overwrite anything important. In the linux kernel this aproach would generate an oops, which is considered pretty bad. Bye, shevek -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
