Maybe we are talking about different dll's. I meant the one needed for

The easiest way is to ship all, source and binary, on a CDROM. It is
my understanding is that you did that at first, then switched to a
binary only, floppy distribution. It is further my understanding that
your customers have to use a mailserver to obtain the source.

If the above is inaccurate, please provide details.

No, I mean subterfuge like ignoring the part of my message asking for the
