Relative to the recent controversy about posting software
in source form in net.sources.mac, doesn't anybody ever read
other people's code just to read it without
any thought of re-using the code.  I do and I learn
how to some things and how NOT to other things.  Who knows,
even Henry S. might learn something new ! :-)

(Of course, I don't want to 2 hundred eleventeen
versions of kermit for the MAC :-) !).

In summary, a YES vote for sources in ALL net.sources.* groups.
Death to binhex and uuencode.

In that case, next time you post your program sources for the PC, please post
your C compiler as well -- I only have MASM.

Or, better yet, try thinking.
