This is the second time you've waisted our bandwidth and posted this binary file. Please
refrain from posting binary files as a) nobody wants to download them and b) nobody in
their right mind would run it, who knows what deadly virii could be hiding in there.

You must realize that a lot of us (including me) run on expensive internet connections and
download every message posted to this forum for offline viewing. I realise that 186k is
not all that much to be complaining about, but it's the principle of the matter that I'm
trying to convey.

If you want to post something, post the source. Everyone here can recompile it if it's in
DJGPP, and if it's not in DJGPP, then you shouldn't be posting it here in the first place

Does anyone agree with me, or am I on my own here?
