In a former position I worked on colorimetric instruments, we used forth on the old AIM-65 and clones. Zip for memory ( 1K-4K RAM ) and the suckers screamed. It has been a while, but I still think fondly of forth and play a bit when I can. Forth experience has sure warped my work in 'C'. Everyone should learn a completely different language, it makes you appreciate the variety more. -Tom -- Tom Merkel att!hriso!merkel merkel@hriso.ATT.COM 201-898-3547 eschew obfuscation
