OK I'll mention that to my psychiatrist :-)
But the C programmers I knew were either really nice guys if they wrote
C on unix, or real toads if they wrote C for DOS/Windows. YMMV
Have a nice day :)

Back in my Amiga days 25-35 years ago, I did my stuff in SAS-C or ARexx
and compiled the ARexx too. ARexx actually had wrappers for every call
Amigados had. Absolutely nothing you could not do in ARexx. Amigados
did not have a cron so we wrote one in ARexx and gave it away. Jim Hines
and I wrote the first tv stations web page ever, dedicated a dialup line
so folks could read the teleprompter text on their home computers. It
was a wild west in those days. Now everybody had a web page but me.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
