Not particularly, I'm afraid - I only use a monochrome monitor! I can
think of better things to do with the memory.
>What would people like to see in it?
Less RAM used <g>. Actually, I do have a list of thinks I'd like:
Trace on SMTP receive as well as on send
Logging of any command to file (for instance asystat > x.log)
Automatic calculation of overall throughput at end of session or on
demand (i.e. total characters divided by seconds since connection) and
that output to the log
Fixing the pointer corruption

What about memory usage? I run in 556K (under DesqView, it's all the
RAM I can get).

What compiler do you use?

<splutter> I've been a software developer for 18+ years and most of
what I do *is* "cut and paste". It's called "software engineering"...

Oh, you're one of the Southend boys? What do you (plural) do down
there, apart from throw things at the Customs and Excise building? (If
you don't throw things at the C&E building then I think you should try
it, it's rather therapeutic and there's always the chance you might hit
a town councillor or a politician, which would be a public service...)
