- Yup, singular. :) It seems that if I close the status window while
- on-line it happens. So I just don't use the status window. ;)
-
- BTW: I love the new version. The rework of the display at the bottom
- gave a little more room. ;) It looks much better.
-
- And I know I sound like an interior decorator, but your dial menu is
- too "busy". :) I don't have a clue as to how to make that better,
- but find a way to lose some of those buttons...

- 2.04, of course. The only system I use term on (the only one with a
- modem, currently, is my 2000. So it's a 2000 with 3 megs of fast and
- a meg of chip. 2.04, no ecs. Running in hires. The 2000 is "hacked"
- so that I've got a button which allows me to select PAL or NTSC, and
- it's set to PAL. That's about the gist of it. I'm running MungWall,
- as I always do. (Though the guru for closing the status window
- happens whether MungWall is running or not--Believe it or not, it does
- make a difference. Programs that free gadgets before they close the
- window go fine unless you've got MungWall running, which makes the
- guru visit.)

- You're really putting lots of hard work into this. I'm really happy
- you haven't just "given up". ;) And I'm happy you're not worried
- about the size of the executable. You've got better things to do than
- waste your time trying to scrunch everything down. ;)
-
- Who knows, maybe once you get SAS 6.0 it'll go down to 150,000. ;)

- PS: How come you've got it hardwired so I can't use my CGTimes-13
- font for everything but the terminal text?
