Well, everyone else on this list probably respects Eli's many great contributions to the DJGPP project very highly. And in case you haven't noticed everyone seems to disagree with you in this matter, maybe that should give you some kind of hint that maybe you aren't right here! And besides, complaining the way you do, most certainly won't make anyone respect you, but I guess you don't give a damn about that, since you act the way you do, which I personally think is resentful! Give it up now, everyone thinks you are wrong flaming someone (especially Eli) for pointing you to the faq. If you aren't satisfyed with an answer you get, either ignore it (not recommended), or reply in a decent way, and say that the answer you got didn't quite answer your question. (in this case, just say that you couldn't find the answer in the FAQ and ask again more specific). But why on earth would you want to flame someone for trying to help you. I just don't get it. Either you are plain stupid, and don't know any better, and in this case there isn't much to do about it, and I'm sorry for your sake, or you are looking for a flame, and in that case I suggest you go elsewhere! -- Peter Palotas alias Blizzar -- blizzar AT hem1 DOT passagen DOT se -- ***************************************************** * A brief description of DJGPP: * * NEVER BEFORE HAS SO FEW DONE SO MUCH FOR SO MANY! * *****************************************************
