Sorry for the delay in replying - I've been away from home most of the last
couple of weeks and (*gasps*) away from e-mail too.

It won't compile for Unix just yet...  The base modules are almost free of
Win32-specific code, but the platform-specific modules for platforms other
than Win32 haven't been written/put back in yet.  I think Allan Skillman is
looking to do that at some point, possibly with a few others.

Sure thing!  It's still a bit volatile and things haven't completely settled
down yet - I'm still changing the base modules, which would break the other
ports if they existed.  Dave Laundon has been working on some areas with me
over the last couple of months, and it's just required communication about
who's working on what and some manual resynchronisation every week or so.

I'm sure that's long been fixed.  I seem to remember some problem about
reinserting the same disk that caused the new version to be written to disk
but the old version still to be kept in memory, making it appear like all
changes were lost.

I've e-mailed you a copy of the latest source; tho it'll probably already be
out of date by the time you see it!  ;-)
