Thanks Brian.

I'll be too busy for the next several months, and with so little interest
in my fork it seems unlikely that I'll resume, but if any
real level of comitment developed that could change. I haven't lost interest
and I will be hanging around on the lists. My core requires ca. 150K less 
memory to run so there's plenty of room to grow even in 16 bit DOS if I had
help to make it happen.  Because my sources are completly rewritten and
fully optimized and now require no external libraries, a power coder 
could probably do quite a bit. Myself, I lack the skills to do much
more than I have.
