But I do think > that the way you have made it is really, really poor. David, I'd like to add something about emotion here. ;) I'm a user, this is a users list. I spend all day using the software that Paul (and friends) wrote, which uses Erik's code a lot AFAIU. I don't understand diddlysquat that you're talking about and I need to get my album finished. If the people you are talking to are asking you to take this off-list, please do. :] I don't like to read too much of the kind of arguments that developers have, I find it off-putting. It's also really handy to have people like Paul, Erik and Lee around to answer some of our 'harder' questions. Please don't make me take sides. -- cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk/tim
