I am tempted to order it without seeing it, but my experience dealing with shareware vendors from Australia suggests that while it will eventually arrive, I'll have a long wait. I've looked in the December Simtel file index and the chyde.uwasa.fi index, and it doesn't seem to be available from either source, unless someone has both archived it under another name and failed to mention HP GL in the file description. I'm sure others out there would like to know this as well. ADthanksVANCE Ross Alford zlraa@marlin.jcu.edu.au -- He would have finished Goddam off then and there, but pity stayed his hand.
