It might help if he credited the original authors instead of lying about who wrote the packaged code.

With regard > to computers, I've been operating/programming them since 1974. 4 years prior to my even existing. :) Not that it matters much. In 8 more years, I'll be older than my Dad. I don't think I ever tried to say I'd be doing this longer than you Ant. :) > It might help if he credited the original authors instead of lying > about who wrote the packaged code. That's been my primary issue with him. And he hasn't stolen anything from me; it just irks me that he won't give credit where credit is due; the people he did steal from. I don't even care about his attitude here or the way he ... converses, if he'd just credit the original authors; I'd quit with him altogether. I probably will anyway, just because it's old and boring. -- "Hrrngh! Someday I'm going to hurl this...er...roll this...hrrngh.. nudge this boulder right down a cliff." - Goblin Warrior

Have you used punch cards at all in your time at all ? if that what you posted would be only be true. -- Peter Please Reply to Newsgroup for the benefit of others Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged.

An old vet friend of mine was using punch cards around that time; so it's entirely possible. I don't doubt what Ant has to say tho... I haven't found his credibility to be of any issue. -- "Hrrngh!
