Tandy, go for it. I wrote SQWINT to be of help to people and it's
certainly not gonna help people who don't have it. I not only don't
mind your giving it to people at work, I would be grateful to you for
doing so.
One question, though - why haven't you yet talked these folks into
buying computers for their HOMES?

jeff these people are not motivated and so they use the computer at
work because they must do so or not have the job. I think there
maybe many blinks that way. who knows. they have the income to buy
machines but no desire. their systems are totally menu driven and
they know zip about dos. I got to play with squint a little but need
to play a little more with some large text files and see how it does.
you probably have my $10 in the bank soon.
