   	Well, my letter bounced, so here goes...  

     I tried your program on my machine (2000HD, 1Meg, 1Meg-Fat Agnus),
   and sdb performed just as you described.  Quite strange!  

     Please post any information you get from MANX about this problem!  I
   was upset enough that the upgrade didn't include a window to dynamically
   observe variables like I have at work on IBM's running Turbo-C or 
   Zortech-C++!  Now it appears that sdb needs further debugging itself!
   Yikes.  There, I feel much better now.

P.S.  I found what appears to be a bug in Rob Peck's book "Programmer's
      Guide to the Amiga".  On page 17, he has a sample program that opens
      the console and writes 'hello world' using a FileHandle, and fprintf().
      Naively, I tried it and got a requester.  Intuitively, it shouldn't 
      work anyway, since fprintf() needs a (FILE *), and the pointer is a
      (FileHandle *).  Anyway, just thought you'd like to know...
