well, I don't need threads that much really. I was hoping to just get
something pre-built to work. I didn't think it was going to be a
major undertaking. I wasn't intending to recompile a bunch of stuff
which I can't do. already told you I can't build 3rd party code,
never works for me. must be pre-built (canned).
I am not going to change my prompt. if anything, I change the titles
of my cmd shell windows using the title command.
I wish there were were a windows-hosted version of DJGPP. it doesn't
like long command-lines and that causes me some problems.
