Line eaters all died a long time a Apologies to all netters. E-mail bounces. Sorry. Phil, Neither of the email addresses you gave me get to you. It seems that everything gets as far as CORNELL and bounces. Someone told me that the gateway at CORNELL doesn't know about addresses with the COM part I don't know enough about network addresses/domains to figure it out. Anyway, ... Thanks for sending me WEB for the Amiga. I received the package OK, but the executable, when uudecoded, doesn't execute. It gives the error: "Unable to load web: Error code 121". I tried FileZap on it to try to see what was messed up, but I can't see the problem. The uudecoded file 'web' is 5797 bytes long. Right? Anyway, it seems something got munged during the uuencoding/transit/ uudecoding. Though I may use WEB sometime in future (so it would be nice to have a working copy) it isn't what I thought it was. I misunderstood that it was a system to extract comments from any source file for producing documentation suitable for a programmer's manual. At this point that's what I'm needing, something to extract the comments from C source, to format into a programmer's manual. Do you know of such a program? I'm thinking about writing one. If there exists one, great. If not, then it could be a useful tool/small project. -terry
