Great! I was using Borland C++ 3.0 because I happened to have the diskettes
around. Remember when a C++ compiler fit on 5 (five) 3.5 diskettes? I have
no problem with keeping the existing filename structure. It's readable, it serves
the purpose - plus it works, so don't mess with it.
Do you need serial IO code that is interrupt driven, Wes? Or can you grab
some from one of the many websites out there?
