Hello steven.matty@gecm.com

Well, the whole Registry deal (which I havn't worked out what the deal
actually is yet:), the blitz.library, the Arraylib, Threadlib, Snowlib, all
those libs I've not even heard of before, etc =]

Thanks again =]

Hehe oh well, it had a few files in that archive that weren't anywhere else,
namely the blitz.library compiled, so...

Not really worth it. Docs would help the newbies more than anything else,
but newbies prolly shouldn't be playing around in such deep asm anyway ;]

Besides, you're probably a very busy person =]

Yeh I thought as much. Well, I'll wait for someone else to compile all the
complex stuff and u/l it ;]

Hmmm, what's the chances of Rob being able to incorperate the FreeBlitz
project into his Blitz 2000 site? That would make it pretty complete then
