I'm notoriously long-winded, and I don't believe I've ever posted anything over 270k. Anyone who would likely would find a better medium in FTP or WWW for doing so, as was mentioned in another article. There simply aren't many (I'd say none at all, but I'll give you the benefit of doubt) instances in normal Usenet discussion where a post will exceed 270k. -- ********************************************************************** Jeff Billman Toledo, Ohio jbillma@bgnet.bgsu.edu ********************************************************************** Abandon all hope ye who PRESS ENTER here.
