Ah ... but maybe that's because we are naturally spoiled brats to begin
with. We have been basking in the mighty glory of Visual Basic, and had
never had to use a c compiler to get our work done.

I know my way around c, but not really. I could not make a nice effort in it
if my life depended on it. And to help Mark Hammond with his Windows work,
there would probably be to many little c modules for my own good.

VC does not come installed on every windows machine you know.
